I find that the syntax used by DuckDB or ClickHouse aligns more closely with traditional conventions and might be more readily accepted. was (Author: eveywu): Why consider using snowflake's syntax definition? I feel that the syntax of DuckDB or ClickHouse is consistent with the traditional method and is easier to accept. > Support ASOF joins > ------------------ > > Key: CALCITE-6372 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CALCITE-6372 > Project: Calcite > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: core > Affects Versions: 1.36.0 > Reporter: Mihai Budiu > Assignee: Mihai Budiu > Priority: Minor > Labels: pull-request-available > > Seems that this new kind of JOIN named AS OF is very useful for processing > time-series data. Here is some example documentation from Snowflake: > https://docs.snowflake.com/en/sql-reference/constructs/asof-join > The semantics is similar to a traditional join, but the result always > contains at most one record from the left side, with the last matching > record on the right side (where "time" is any value that can be compared for > inequality). This can be expressed in SQL, but it looks very cumbersome, > using a JOIN, a GROUP BY, and then an aggregation to keep the last value. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
