Ovidiu Marcu commented on FLINK-2099:
-------------------------------------
Thanks, I will look into FLINK-3152.
Can you please make an umbrella task to link all SQL jira issues currently
opened?
I am also investigating ways to use the benchmark TPC-DS. This will raise other
missing features probably.
Regarding Table API this is all the docs I can find
https://ci.apache.org/projects/flink/flink-docs-release-0.10/libs/table.html ,
maybe there is something else I'm missing and you can point out?
Thanks.
> Add a SQL API
> -------------
>
> Key: FLINK-2099
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-2099
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Table API
> Reporter: Timo Walther
> Assignee: Timo Walther
>
> From the mailing list:
> Fabian: Flink's Table API is pretty close to what SQL provides. IMO, the best
> approach would be to leverage that and build a SQL parser (maybe together
> with a logical optimizer) on top of the Table API. Parser (and optimizer)
> could be built using Apache Calcite which is providing exactly this.
> Since the Table API is still a fairly new component and not very feature
> rich, it might make sense to extend and strengthen it before putting
> something major on top.
> Ted: It would also be relatively simple (I think) to retarget drill to Flink
> if
> Flink doesn't provide enough typing meta-data to do traditional SQL.
