Timo Walther created FLINK-19977: ------------------------------------ Summary: Add new toDataStream and toDataStream Key: FLINK-19977 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-19977 Project: Flink Issue Type: Sub-task Components: Table SQL / API Reporter: Timo Walther
The DataStream API itself is not a changelog processor. Therefore, in most of the cases, the DataStream API produces insert-only events of different data types. Insert-only semantics make the handling of different record types easier because we don't require a Row or RowData to contain a RowKind flag. It is therefore possible to offer the conversion of any data type to an insert-only table, without the necessity of performing manual schema work. Goal: Convert between table and DataStream as easy as possible. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
