             Summary: Order by partition by
                 Key: PIG-3037
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-3037
             Project: Pig
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Ted Malaska
            Priority: Minor


Why doesn't PIG support partition by on order by?

If PIG would then PIG could be used for a mess of windowing functions.  

Is there some reason why we can't add a custom partitioner on a order by 
operation?

Is there a work around to do windowing in PIG.  

I understand the I can group and then group with in a group, but what if the 
items with in the group are super big will I have memory issues?  Because I 
need to order the values with in a group.  i.e. stock tickers is the group and 
they need to be sorted on time.
