Harish Butani commented on HIVE-896: ------------------------------------ Alan, I have attached a document describing the PTF & Windowing Specification classes. This is a formal description of the changes I was describing above. The output of Phase 1 will be Windowing & PTFInvocation objects attached to the QB. The thought process is: - Phase 1 generates Specification that doesn't tie PTFs and Windowing - We alter the PTFTranslator to handle both Windowing & PTFInvocations; for now we keep the PTFDef classes mostly intact. - in the future we: - build a separate Operator for Windowing, based on the Spec classes. - tbd: we refactor the PTFTranslator and Definition classes to share more translation code with the Windowing Operator. > Add LEAD/LAG/FIRST/LAST analytical windowing functions to Hive. > --------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-896 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-896 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: OLAP, UDF > Reporter: Amr Awadallah > Priority: Minor > Attachments: DataStructs.html, HIVE-896.1.patch.txt > > > Windowing functions are very useful for click stream processing and similar > time-series/sliding-window analytics. > More details at: > http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B13789_01/server.101/b10736/analysis.htm#i1006709 > http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B13789_01/server.101/b10736/analysis.htm#i1007059 > http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B13789_01/server.101/b10736/analysis.htm#i1007032 > -- amr -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
