I should have said that SELECT * FROM order_item o JOIN product p USING(product_id)
(without the "STREAM" keyword) is a time-varying relation. You can execute it at 10am, and it terminates, and again at 10.10am and get different results. The difference is due to differences in both product and order_item. If you want to join based on when the order was placed, you must have a column that records the order time. Beyond that, I'm not sure of the details - you may be able to use AS OF, there may be a system-maintained column that records when product was last updated.
