Window Types and Operation Options

Window Types and Operation Options

Purpose: Control how data is aggregated over time to determine alert triggers.

  • Tumbling Window

  • Fixed-sized, non-overlapping intervals (e.g., 5-minute windows: 0–5 min, 5–10 min).

  • Ideal for batch processing or strict time-bound analysis.

  • Sliding Window

  • Fixed-length window that moves forward by smaller intervals (e.g., a 5-minute window sliding every 1 minute).

  • Useful for continuous monitoring and real-time insights.

Aggregation Operations (select during alert creation):

  • sum, min, max, avg (for metrics).
  • set intersection, distribution, concatenation (for logs).
  • custom (advanced users for tailored logic).
