+#### INTERVAL_YEAR_MONTH
+`INTERVAL_YEAR_MONTH` is used to represent a year-month time interval, such as
+`4 years and 6 months`. It must annotate an `int32` that stores the total 
number
+of months as a signed integer, which represents the interval and can be 
negative.
+The time duration is independent of any timezone.

+#### INTERVAL
+`INTERVAL` is *deprecated*. Please use `INTERVAL_YEAR_MONTH` and 
`INTERVAL_DAY_TIME`
+as a more precise representation per [ANSI SQL 
Standard](https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/informix-servers/14.10.0?topic=types-ansi-sql-standards-datetime-interval-values).

Review Comment:
   Is there a more official link rather than an IBM documentation?

Review Comment:
   There is a section about `ColumnOrder` where we need to add a comment for 
the new interval types.
