slim bouguerra commented on CALCITE-1803:
-----------------------------------------
[~julianhyde] the having is applied to individual group by results before we
trigger the post aggregate.
in fact having is a simple filter on the top of single aggregate results thus
it can not be used for arbitrary expressions. There is some work in order to
enable such arbitrary expressions via virtual columns but we are not there yet.
Hence the bottom line we can push some of the project after aggregates by using
post aggregate function.

> Key: CALCITE-1803
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CALCITE-1803
> Project: Calcite
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: druid
> Affects Versions: 1.11.0
> Reporter: Junxian Wu
> Assignee: Julian Hyde
> Original Estimate: 336h
> Remaining Estimate: 336h
>
> Druid post aggregations are not supported when parsing SQL queries. By
> implementing post aggregations, we can offload some computation to the druid
> cluster rather than aggregate on the client side.
> Example usage:
> {{SELECT SUM("column1") - SUM("column2") FROM "table";}}
> This query will be parsed into two separate Druid aggregations according to
> current rules. Then the results will be subtracted in Calcite. By using the
> {{postAggregations}} field in the druid query, the subtraction could be done
> in Druid cluster. Although the previous example is simple, the difference
> will be obvious when the number of result rows are large. (Multiple rows
> result will happen when group by is used).
> Questions:
> After I push Post aggregation into Druid query, what should I change on the
> project relational correlation? In the case of the example above, the
> {{BindableProject}} will have the expression to representation the
> subtraction. If I push the post aggregation into druid query, the expression
> of subtraction should be replaced by the representation of the post
> aggregations result. For now, the project expression seems can only point to
> the aggregations results. Since post aggregations have to point to
> aggregations results too, it could not be placed in the parallel level as
> aggregation. Where should I put post aggregations?
