Hey, Kylin developer here! Say hi to everyone. :D In addition to query preparation and optimization, we also leverage Calcite to execute query, run the generated source code and produce results. Currently we are on optiq 0.8 and moving to a stable calcite release will be a big next step.
Going forward, we like to contribute back to calcite too. There were a few chances, small bugs fixes etc, but tight internal schedule didn't give those a priority. Now that Kylin has gone open source, we will have more time to collaborate with big world, especially the great calcite project. Looking forward to work with you guys!

I’ve been talking to Kylin’s architects Luke Han and Xu Jiang for a few months, and have seen demos of it in action. It is impressive. Kylin is using Calcite/Optiq not just for parsing, but also for optimization. They have written quite a few RelNodes and rules targeted at their execution environment, which is cubes stored in HBase. Obviously Calcite does not have data storage, but in terms of query preparation and optimization, there is considerable overlap with the lattice feature I’ve added to Calcite over the last few months. (I will be demoing lattices at Strata in NY next week… more about those soon.) The Kylin developers are aware of the overlaps and they want to work more closely with Calcite. I believe that they are considering the project for Apache incubation. If so, that would be great news. Kylin is an impressive project that fills an important need.
