>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Table SQL / Planner, Table SQL / Runtime
>            Reporter: Vladislav Protsenko
>            Priority: Major

> Currently, when trying to use Instants as "columns" in SQL as rowtime, planner fails to validate graph with the following exception:
> The rowtime attribute can only replace a field with a valid time type, such as Timestamp or Long. But was: Instant
> I think Instant is a more useful time type than Timestamp or Long, so it would be great if that was supported.
