Jun Zhang updated FLINK-19896: ------------------------------ Summary: Improve first-n-rows fetching in the rank operator (was: Improve first-n-rows in the rank operator) > Improve first-n-rows fetching in the rank operator > -------------------------------------------------- > > Key: FLINK-19896 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-19896 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Table SQL / Planner, Table SQL / Runtime > Reporter: Jun Zhang > Priority: Major > Attachments: flink-19896.patch > > > Currently Deduplicate operator only supports first-row deduplication (ordered > by proc-time). In scenario of first-n-rows deduplication, the planner has to > resort to Rank operator. However, Rank operator is less efficient than > Deduplicate due to larger state and more state access. > This issue proposes to extend DeduplicateKeepFirstRowFunction to support > first-n-rows deduplication. And the original first-row deduplication would be > a special case of first-n-rows deduplication. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
