Hi Alex, 

Your problem sounds interesting and I have always found dealing with
timestamps cumbersome.

Nevertheless, what I understand is that your start and end timsstamp for
American and European customers are based on their local clock.

For ex the start and end timestamp of 12 AM - 12 AM in america would be
different for the same time in europe (also would be different across
timezones with the continent as well)

What I can think of right now is to define your start and end timestamp from
a reference timezone like take UTC as your reference and define one time
globally. It solves your problem of creating multiple windows for all
timezones but may not satisfy your customers need as the 1 day would be
defined not from midnight anymore (if thats what you need).

Otherwise, AFAIK about Flink ...you would have to define the timewindows for
all the timezones u need, but the experts here may point out to some better
solution.

Regards,
Biplob
