How to merge multiple data sources and deduplicate based on certain fields?

[wj-stack]

Is your feature request related to a problem or challenge?

I currently have two data sources, one stored in Parquet format and the other in memory. I need to implement a scan function. I tried using UnionExec, but it's obviously not working, especially when using aggregation functions like count. Maybe I should use SortPreservingMergeExec, but there are too few examples of this function. I would appreciate it if you could add an example that includes multiple data sources, as these sources may contain duplicate data, and I would be happy to see an example of deduplication based on multiple fields.

    async fn scan(
        &self,
        state: &dyn Session,
        projection: Option<&Vec<usize>>,
        filters: &[Expr],
        limit: Option<usize>,
    ) -> Result<Arc<dyn ExecutionPlan>> {
        // convert filters like [`a = 1`, `b = 2`] to a single filter like `a = 1 AND b = 2`
        let predicate = self.filters_to_predicate(state, filters)?;

        // Now, we invoke the analysis code to perform the range analysis
        let df_schema = DFSchema::try_from(self.schema())?;

        let boundaries = ExprBoundaries::try_new_unbounded(&self.schema())?;

        let analysis_result = analyze(
            &predicate,
            AnalysisContext::new(boundaries),
            df_schema.as_ref(),
        )?;

        // In this example, we use the PruningPredicate's literal guarantees to
        // analyze the predicate. In a real system, using
        // `PruningPredicate::prune` would likely be easier to do.
        let pruning_predicate =
            PruningPredicate::try_new(Arc::clone(&predicate), self.schema().clone())?;

        debug!("pruning_predicate:{:?}", pruning_predicate);

        // The PruningPredicate's guarantees must all be satisfied in order for
        // the predicate to possibly evaluate to true.
        let guarantees = pruning_predicate.literal_guarantees();

        debug!("guarantees:{:?}", guarantees);

        let object_store_url = ObjectStoreUrl::parse("file://")?;
        let mut file_scan_config = FileScanConfig::new(object_store_url, self.schema())
            .with_projection(projection.cloned())
            .with_limit(limit);

        let mut points = vec![];

        for expr in &analysis_result.boundaries {
            if expr.column.name() == "show_time" {
                let lower = expr.interval.lower().clone().to_array().unwrap();
                let lower = lower
                    .as_any()
                    .downcast_ref::<TimestampMillisecondArray>()
                    .unwrap();

                let upper = expr.interval.upper().clone().to_array().unwrap();
                let upper = upper
                    .as_any()
                    .downcast_ref::<TimestampMillisecondArray>()
                    .unwrap();

                debug!(
                    "{:?} lower:{:?} upper:{:?}",
                    expr.column,
                    lower.value(0),
                    upper.value(0)
                );

                if p.len() != 0 {

                    let additional = { self.additional.read().await.clone() };

                                    Some((String::from(f.0), f.1))
                                })
                                .await
                                .unwrap();

                            v.push(PartitionedFile::new(f.0.clone(), f.1));
                        }
