Nikolay,

The main issue - there is no *selection*.

There is a field of knowledge - relational algebra, which describes how to 
transform relational expressions saving their semantics, and a couple of 
implementations (Calcite is only one written in Java).

There are only two alternatives:

1) Implementing white papers from scratch
2) Adopting Calcite to our needs.

The second way was chosen by several other projects, there is experience, there 
is a list of known issues (like using indexes) so, almost everything is already 
done for us.

Implementing a planner is a big deal, I think anybody understands it there. 
That's why our proposal to reuse others experience is obvious.

If you have an alternative - you're welcome, I'll gratefully listen to you.

The main question isn't "WHAT" but "HOW" - that's the discussion topic from my 
point of view.

Regards,
Igor
