Fabian Hueske commented on FLINK-6219: -------------------------------------- Hi [~phoenixjiangnan], I think this feature would be very valuable for many use cases and would like to keep this issue open. Can you point me to a discussion that agreed to not have a sorted state? Thanks, Fabian > Add a state backend which supports sorting > ------------------------------------------ > > Key: FLINK-6219 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-6219 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: State Backends, Checkpointing, Table API & SQL > Reporter: sunjincheng > > When we implement the OVER window of > [FLIP11|https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/FLINK/FLIP-11%3A+Table+API+Stream+Aggregations] > We notice that we need a state backend which supports sorting, allows for > efficient insertion, traversal in order, and removal from the head. > For example: In event-time OVER window, we need to sort by time,If the datas > as follow: > {code} > (1L, 1, Hello) > (2L, 2, Hello) > (5L, 5, Hello) > (4L, 4, Hello) > {code} > We randomly insert the datas, just like: > {code} > put((2L, 2, Hello)),put((1L, 1, Hello)),put((5L, 5, Hello)),put((4L, 4, > Hello)), > {code} > We deal with elements in time order: > {code} > process((1L, 1, Hello)),process((2L, 2, Hello)),process((4L, 4, > Hello)),process((5L, 5, Hello)) > {code} > Welcome anyone to give feedback,And what do you think?
