[jira] [Created] (FLINK-23926) change TaxiRide data model to have a single timestamp

--------------------------------------

             Summary: change TaxiRide data model to have a single timestamp
                 Key: FLINK-23926
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-23926
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Documentation / Training / Exercises
            Reporter: David Anderson
            Assignee: David Anderson


The current TaxiRide events have two timestamps – the startTime and endTime. Which timestamp applies to a given event depends on the value of the isStart field. This is awkward, and unnecessary. It would be better to have a single eventTime field. This will make the exercises better examples, and allow for more straightforward conversion from DataStream to Table.
