xiaodao commented on FLINK-13900: --------------------------------- why not design console just like a sink table.we can set any property like speed limit for it. for this, we can just use sql. create table kafka_logs(...) with(...); CREATE TABLE rds_out ( start_timestamp TIMESTAMP, end_timestamp TIMESTAMP, card_id VARCHAR, event VARCHAR ) WITH ( type ='console', speedlimit ='1m' ); INSERT INTO rds_out SELECT * FROM kafka_logs > Add a built-in "console" sink to print results in console > --------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: FLINK-13900 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-13900 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Table SQL / API, Table SQL / Planner > Reporter: Jark Wu > Priority: Major > > It is a useful feature for debugging and quickstart.
