documentationframe¶
Description¶
Specify the relative time frame for a window context. The frame will start from the current row’s “Valid From” time minus “back”, and end at “Valid From” plus “ahead” (both ends are inclusive). For better performance, the window frame boundaries may not be exact and can deviate by at most 1/120th of the total frame size (or 10 seconds, whichever is larger). To make the window boundaries exact, at the cost of slower performance, use the frame_exact() function.
Return type¶
frame
Domain¶
