> Add maxBy/minBy to Scala DataSet API
> ------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-3650
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-3650
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Java API, Scala API
> Affects Versions: 1.1.0
> Reporter: Till Rohrmann
> Assignee: ramkrishna.s.vasudevan
>
> The stable Java DataSet API contains the API calls {{maxBy}} and {{minBy}}.
> These methods are not supported by the Scala DataSet API. These methods
> should be added in order to have a consistent API.
