> Dedicated DISTINCT operator for streaming tables with time attributes
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-9422
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-9422
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Table SQL / API
> Reporter: Fabian Hueske
> Assignee: Ruidong Li
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: stale-minor
>
> We can implement a dedicated operator for a {{UNION}} operator on tables with
> time attributes. Currently, {{UNION}} is translated into a {{UNION ALL}} and
> a subsequent {{GROUP BY}} on all attributes without aggregation functions.
> The state of the grouping operator is only clean up using state retention
> timers.
> The dedicated operator would leverage the monotonicity property of the time
> attribute and watermarks to automatically clean up its state.
