Fabian Hueske commented on FLINK-5990:
--------------------------------------
Actually, we decided to not cover this case because it does not handle late
arriving data well. In fact, all records which follow a late record need to be
recomputed which is too expensive.

> Add event time OVER ROWS BETWEEN x PRECEDING aggregation to SQL
> ---------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-5990
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-5990
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: Table API & SQL
> Reporter: sunjincheng
> Assignee: sunjincheng
>
> The goal of this issue is to add support for OVER ROWS aggregations on event
> time streams to the SQL interface.
> Queries similar to the following should be supported:
> {code}
> SELECT
> a,
> SUM(b) OVER (PARTITION BY c ORDER BY rowTime() ROWS BETWEEN 2 PRECEDING AND
> CURRENT ROW) AS sumB,
> MIN(b) OVER (PARTITION BY c ORDER BY rowTime() ROWS BETWEEN 2 PRECEDING AND
> CURRENT ROW) AS minB
> FROM myStream
> {code}
> The following restrictions should initially apply:
> - All OVER clauses in the same SELECT clause must be exactly the same.
> - The PARTITION BY clause is optional (no partitioning results in single
> threaded execution).
> - The ORDER BY clause may only have rowTime() as parameter. rowTime() is a
> parameterless scalar function that just indicates event time mode.
> - UNBOUNDED PRECEDING is not supported (see FLINK-5658)
> - FOLLOWING is not supported.
> The restrictions will be resolved in follow up issues. If we find that some
> of the restrictions are trivial to address, we can add the functionality in
> this issue as well.
> This issue includes:
> - Design of the DataStream operator to compute OVER ROW aggregates
> - Translation from Calcite's RelNode representation (LogicalProject with
> RexOver expression).
