Work in Progress

  • Upsert: support overriding data in the real-time table (#4261).
    • Add pinot upsert features to pinot common (#5175)

Backward Incompatible Changes

  • TableConfig no longer support de-serialization from json string of nested json string (i.e. no \" inside the json) (#5194)

  • The following APIs are changed in AggregationFunction (use TransformExpressionTree instead of String as the key of blockValSetMap) (#5371):

    void aggregate(int length, AggregationResultHolder aggregationResultHolder, Map<TransformExpressionTree, BlockValSet> blockValSetMap);
void aggregateGroupBySV(int length, int[] groupKeyArray, GroupByResultHolder groupByResultHolder, Map<TransformExpressionTree, BlockValSet> blockValSetMap);
void aggregateGroupByMV(int length, int[][] groupKeysArray, GroupByResultHolder groupByResultHolder, Map<TransformExpressionTree, BlockValSet> blockValSetMap);
