# Sliding window analytics

***

This example provides a demonstration of the available OOTB aggregate functions Joule provides that work with sliding windows.

## Use case configuration

*File:* app-slidingWindowAnalytics.env

```bash
SOURCEFILE=conf/sources/stockQuoteStream.yaml
ENGINEFILE=conf/usecases/slidingWindowAnalytics.yaml
PUBLISHFILE=/conf/publishers/fileStandardAnalytics.yaml
```

## Pipeline configuration <a href="#processor-configuration" id="processor-configuration"></a>

This pipeline will compute a sliding window function on a single event type based on symbol `CVCO`

{% code overflow="wrap" %}

```yaml
stream:
  name: standardQuoteAnalyticsStream
  enabled: true
  eventTimeType: EVENT_TIME
  sources: [ nasdaq_quotes_stream ]

  processing unit:
    pipeline:
      - time window:
          emitting type: slidingQuoteAnalytics
          aggregate functions:
            FIRST: [ask]
            LAST: [ ask ]
            MIN: [ ask ]
            MAX: [ bid ]
            SUM: [ volume ]
            MEAN: [ volatility ]
            HARMONIC_MEAN: [ volatility ]
            VARIANCE: [ volatility ]
            STDEV: [ volatility ]
          policy:
            type: slidingTime
            slide: 500
            window size: 2500

  select:
    expression: "symbol, ask_FIRST, ask_LAST, ask_MIN, bid_MAX, volume_SUM, volatility_MEAN, volatility_HARMONIC_MEAN, volatility_VARIANCE, volatility_STDEV"

  group by:
    - symbol
```

{% endcode %}

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.fractalworks.io/joule/use-case-examples/banking/sliding-window-analytics.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
