-----------------------------------
Summary: Add support for timezones
Key: FLINK-8353
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-8353
Project: Flink
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Table API & SQL
Reporter: Timo Walther
This is an umbrella issue for adding support for timezones in the Table & SQL
API.
Usually companies work with different timezones simultaneously. We could add
support for the new time classes introduced with Java 8 and enable our scalar
functions to also work with those (or some custom time class implementations
like those from Calcite). We need a good design for this to address most of the
problems users face related to timestamp and timezones.
It is up for discussion how to ship date, time, timestamp instances through the
cluster.
