HI

Aerospike does not support an “order by” command or filter. But is is possible to programmatically process the output stream of a query using [stream UDF](http://www.aerospike.com/docs/guide/stream_udf.html) . A cleaver stream UDF can filter, map, aggregate and reduce the results of a query.

I hope this helps
