Xintong Song commented on FLINK-23747:
--------------------------------------
[~liliwei],
Thanks a lot for the updates. Shall we consider the testing is finished and
close this ticket, or there are more cases that you'd like to test against? Of
course you can report problems anytime even after closing the ticket. I'm
asking mainly because it's part of the release process that we finish testing
new features before the release.
[~qingru zhang],
Could you please take a look at the above questions [~liliwei] raised?

> Window offset is an optional parameter which could be used to change the
> alignment of windows.
> There are something we need clarify about window offset:
> (1) In SQL, window offset is an optional parameter, if it is specified, it is
> the last parameter of the window.
> for Tumble window
> {code:java}
> TUMBLE(TABLE MyTable, DESCRIPTOR(rowtime), INTERVAL '15' MINUTE, INTERVAL '5'
> MINUTE){code}
> for Hop Window
> {code:java}
> HOP(TABLE MyTable, DESCRIPTOR(rowtime), INTERVAL '1' MINUTE, INTERVAL '15'
> MINUTE,
> INTERVAL '5' MINUTE){code}
> for Cumulate Window
> {code:java}
> CUMULATE(TABLE MyTable, DESCRIPTOR(rowtime), INTERVAL '1' MINUTE, INTERVAL
> '15' MINUTE, INTERVAL '5' MINUTE){code}
> (2) Window offset could be positive duration and negative duration.
> (3) Window offset is used to change the alignment of Windows. The same record
> may be assigned to the different window after set window offset. But it
> always apply a rule, timestamp >= window_start && timestamp < window_end.
> Give a demo, for a tumble window, window size is 10 MINUTE, which window
> would be assigned to for a record with timestamp 2021-06-30 00:00:04?
> # offset is '-16 MINUTE', the record assigns to window [2021-06-29
> 23:54:00, 2021-06-30 00:04:00)
> # offset is '-6 MINUTE', the record assigns to window [2021-06-29 23:54:00,
> 2021-06-30 00:04:00)
> # offset is '-4 MINUTE', the record assigns to window [2021-06-29 23:56:00,
> 2021-06-30 00:06:00)
> # offset is '0', the record assigns to window [2021-06-30 00:00:00,
> 2021-06-30 00:10:00)
> # offset is '4 MINUTE', the record assigns to window [2021-06-29 23:54:00,
> 2021-06-30 00:04:00)
> # offset is '6 MINUTE, the record assigns to window [2021-06-29 23:56:00,
> 2021-06-30 00:06:00)
> # offset is '16 MINUTE', the record assigns to window [2021-06-29 23:56:00,
> 2021-06-30 00:06:00)
> (4) We could find that, some window offset parameters may have same effect on
> the alignment of windows, in the above case, '-16 MINUTE' /'-6 MINUTE'/'4
> MINUTE' have same effect on a tumble window with '10 MINUTE' size.
> (5) Window offset is only used to change the alignment of Windows, it has no
> effect on watermark.
