 Hi Mans,

no, non-equi joins are not supported by the relational APIs because they can be 
prohibitively expensive to compute.There's one exception. Cross joins where one 
of the input tables is guaranteed to have a single row (because it is the 
result of a non-grouped aggregation) are supported in the batch Table API / SQL.
The documentation shows which types of joins are supported including examples 
(Table API [1], SQL [2]).
With the upcoming 1.4 release, windowed joins will be added for streaming 
queries.

Best, Fabian

Hi:
Is it possible to perform non-equi joins in Flink using the core or relational 
apis ?  Is there any documentation on what sort of joins are supported with 
their examples ?
Thanks
Mans
