Alex, STREAMING command is definitely a DML command. And by the way, the DML page is not a mess. It documents all DML commands we have. I think you were looking at something else.
What is the major difficulty of implementing STREAMING command on Ignite SQL API? It should be even simpler than JDBC as all it should do is delegate to the actual IgniteDataStreamer and that is it. I keep repeating that we should stop adding handicapped features that work only in some cases, but yet this trend continues. Vladimir, can you comment? D.
