Hi Vijay,

there are many ways to implement joins with a stateful CoProcessFunction.
It gives you access to the timestamps of records and you can register
timers that trigger when a certain time is reached.
It is basically up to you how you join and emit data. You can drop late
data or emit it. Please note that records are emitted either with their
current timestamp (if in processElement()) or with the timestamp of the
timer that fired (in onTimer()).

Hope this helps,
Fabian
