> support dynamic catalog table for truly unified SQL job
> -------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-15206
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-15206
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Table SQL / API
> Reporter: Bowen Li
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: auto-deprioritized-major, auto-unassigned
>
> currently if users have both an online and an offline job with same business
> logic in Flink SQL, their codebase is still not unified. They would keep two
> SQL statements whose only difference is the source (or/and sink) table (with
> different params). E.g.
> {code:java}
> // online job
> insert into x select * from kafka_table (starting time) ...;
> // offline backfill job
> insert into x select * from hive_table (starting and ending time) ...;
> {code}
> We can introduce a "dynamic catalog table". The dynamic catalog table acts as
> a view, and is just an abstract table of multiple actual tables behind it
> that can be switched under some configuration flags. When execute a job,
> depending on the configuration, the dynamic catalog table can point to an
> actual source table.
> A use case for this is the example given above - when executed in streaming
> mode, {{my_source_dynamic_table}} should point to a kafka catalog table with
> a new starting position, and in batch mode, {{my_source_dynamic_table}}
> should point to a hive catalog table with starting/ending positions.
>
> One thing to note is that the starting position of kafka_table, and
> starting/ending position of hive_table are different every time. needs more
> thinking of how can we accommodate that
