SQL Has Problems. We Can Fix Them: Pipe Syntax In SQL
Summary: Add pipe-structured dataflow syntax to SQL (GoogleSQL) to allow arbitrary operator composition and express multi-level aggregations without subqueries, while preserving full backward compatibility. Enables incremental, interoperable language extensions inspired by KQL/Beam. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
