Fabian Hueske commented on FLINK-6233:
--------------------------------------

Thanks for opening the JIRA [~Yuhong_kyo] and working on this.

I think it looks pretty good. I would handle late data a bit differently. 
Right now, the Table API / SQL does not offer a way to configure late data 
handling and late rows are simply dropped. I would do the same here.
When we enable late data handling we have to revisit the implementation. 

Thanks, Fabian

> The goal of this issue is to add support for inner equi-join on proc time 
> streams to the SQL interface.
> Queries similar to the following should be supported:
> {code}
> SELECT o.rowtime , o.productId, o.orderId, s.rowtime AS shipTime 
> FROM Orders AS o 
> JOIN Shipments AS s 
> ON o.orderId = s.orderId 
> AND o.rowtime BETWEEN s.rowtime AND s.rowtime + INTERVAL '1' HOUR;
> {code}
> The following restrictions should initially apply:
> * The join hint only support inner join
> * The ON clause should include equi-join condition
> * The time-condition {{o.rowtime BETWEEN s.rowtime AND s.rowtime + INTERVAL 
> '1' HOUR}} only can use rowtime that is a system attribute, the time 
> condition only support bounded time range like {{o.rowtime BETWEEN s.rowtime 
> - INTERVAL '1' HOUR AND s.rowtime + INTERVAL '1' HOUR}}, not support 
> unbounded like {{o.rowtime < s.rowtime}} ,  and  should include both two 
> stream's rowtime attribute, {{o.rowtime between rowtime () and rowtime () + 
> 1}} should also not be supported.
> An row-time streams join will not be able to handle late data, because this 
> would mean in insert a row into a sorted order shift all other computations. 
> This would be too expensive to maintain. Therefore, we will throw an error if 
> a user tries to use an row-time stream join with late data handling.
> This issue includes:
> * Design of the DataStream operator to deal with stream join
> * Translation from Calcite's RelNode representation (LogicalJoin).
