Aniruddha Gangopadhyay commented on LENS-251:
---------------------------------------------

Lens by default assumes data availability until present time. However, to 
ensure that the query will have access to the latest data depends on the 
partitions being added to respective storage tables. Or, in an altogether 
different scenario, where there is no notion of time partitioned data, however, 
there is a dynamic time range for which data is available in that storage table 
(say last N days or hours, so on). We already have a notion of static time 
range associated with partitioned storage tables (inferred by the partitions 
added). We need the notion of dynamic time range associated with partitioned as 
well as non-partitioned tables. By introducing dynamism in time range of data 
available with a partitioned storage table, we effectively talk about a sliding 
window which calls for dynamically adding newer partitions and dropping older 
ones based on the time window. For non partitioned storage tables, its more 
about being aware of the time window for which data is available in that 
storage table.

> For certain stores that allows streaming ingestion, to make the data 
> available immediately for querying, we need the notion of streaming update 
> period or some such.
