Fabian Hueske commented on FLINK-6228:
--------------------------------------
I'm not sure whether each window type is useful / required for both {{groupBy}}
and {{over}}.
How would an {{OverWindow}} be defined? What would be the semantics of an
{{OverWindow}} with {{groupBy}}?
Also {{OverWindow}} (as in SQL) can express the semantics that I have in mind
for {{TumbleWindow}} and {{SlideWindow}} for {{over}}. Hence, {{TumbleWindow}}
and {{SlideWindow}} would just be syntactic sugar and not add to expressiveness.
I agree that {{SessionWindow}} would be useful for {{over}} as well.

> Syntax:
> {code}
> table
> .overWindows(
> (Rows|Range [ partitionBy value_expression , ... [ n ]] [ orderBy
> order_by_expression]
> (preceding
> UNBOUNDED|value_specification.(rows|milli|second|minute|hour|day|month|year)|CURRENTROW)
> [following

> as alias,...[n])
> )
> .select( [col1,...[n]], (agg(col1) OVER overWindowAlias, … [n])
> {code}
> Implement restrictions:
> * All OVER clauses in the same SELECT clause must be exactly the same.
> * The PARTITION BY clause is optional (no partitioning results in single
> threaded execution).
> * The ORDER BY Before the
> [FLINK-5884|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-5884] implementation
> orderBy may only have ‘rowtime/’proctime(for stream)/‘specific-time-field(for
> batch).
> * FOLLOWING is not supported.
> I will soon add a user interface design document.
