------------------------------------
Summary: Extend TableSource to support nested data
Key: FLINK-5280
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-5280
Project: Flink
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Table API & SQL
Affects Versions: 1.2.0
Reporter: Fabian Hueske
The {{TableSource}} interface does currently only support the definition of
flat rows.
However, there are several storage formats for nested data that should be
supported such as Avro, Json, Parquet, and Orc. The Table API and SQL can also
natively handle nested rows.
The {{TableSource}} interface and the code to register table sources in
Calcite's schema need to be extended to support nested data.
