| Description |
|
I would like to suggest that MariaDB 10.3 implements a new data type to differentiate from SQL Server, PostgreSQL and Oracle: Time Intervals. This New Data would be really valuable for doing JOINs between tables which have a Temporal Overlap between Events, and would suppose a disruptive innovation in the RDBMS industry. In R package lubridate, Time Intervals are defined as follows: Hope my suggestion is useful. Kind regards, |
