> *Problem*
> ODBC has standard function LEN(string). We do not support it at the moment 
> because our H2 engine doesn't have this function. Instead, it has LENGTH 
> function [1].
> We need to support LEN as well.
> *Solution*
> It is necessary to investigate how we can add "LEN" support. Most probably we 
> should implement custom H2 function [2] inside "core" module. It can be 
> placed in the package 
> {{org.apache.ignite.internal.processors.query.h2.ext.func}} in the module 
> "ignite-indexing".
> After that we should register it's alias inside the database, so that is LEN 
> is correctly routed to that function.
> There is a chance that we can skip implementation of the new function and 
> directly route LEN alias to built-in LENGTH function. This is the most 
> preferred solution (if achievable). See {{org.h2.expression.Function}} class 
> in H2 JAR. It shows an example on how funcs are registered and mapped to SQL 
> literals. E.g., this is how {{LENGTH}} is mapped:
> {code}
> addFunction("LENGTH", LENGTH, 1, Value.LONG);
> {code}
> Something semantically similar can be found in {{GridSqlFunction}} and 
> {{GridSqlFunctionType}} classes in Ignite. 
> Please also make sure that proper tests are added.
