This analysis is essential for order-based optimizations and is often more complex than one might initially think. +<blockquote style="border-left: 4px solid #007bff; padding: 10px; background-color: #f8f9fa;"> + <strong>Ordering Requirement</strong> for an operator describes how the input data to that operator must be sorted for the operator to compute the correct result. It is the job of the planner to make sure that these requirements are satisfied during execution (See DataFusion <a href="https://docs.rs/datafusion/latest/datafusion/physical_optimizer/enforce_sorting/struct.EnforceSorting.html" target="_blank">EnforceSorting</a> for an implementation of such rule). +</blockquote> + +There are various use cases, where this type of analysis can be useful such as the following examples.
