Thanks Jamie, Yes your assumption is correct. I can use keyBy as follows: stream.keyBy(“pojo.field1”,”pojo.field2”,…) Would make sense that I can use sum for example, to do its job for more than one field: stream.sum(“pojo.field1”,”pojo.field2”,…)
I have created this Jira issue for it, hopefully, it will get picked someday. https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-4029 -Rami On 8 Jun 2016, at 04:25, Jamie Grier <ja...@data-artisans.com<mailto:ja...@data-artisans.com>> wrote: I'm assuming what you're trying to do is essentially sum over two different fields of your data. I would do this with my own ReduceFunction. stream .keyBy("someKey") .reduce(CustomReduceFunction) // sum whatever fields you want and return the result I think it does make sense that Flink could provide a generic sum function that could sum over multiple fields, though. -Jamie On Tue, Jun 7, 2016 at 5:41 AM, Al-Isawi Rami <rami.al-is...@comptel.com<mailto:rami.al-is...@comptel.com>> wrote: Hi, Is there any reason why “keyBy" accepts multi-field, while for example “sum” does not. -Rami Disclaimer: This message and any attachments thereto are intended solely for the addressed recipient(s) and may contain confidential information.
