When you’re collecting streaming data for analysis, there’s a delay between the time when an event occurs and the time when your analytics system receives the data about that event. Usually, this delay is relatively short, but it can be much longer, such as when a system sending data temporarily loses its connection to the system receiving the data. This delay causes a surprising number of complications.
In this lesson, you’ll learn how Azure Stream Analytics handles late-arriving, early-arriving, and out-of-order events. You’ll also learn how it uses a watermark to determine when to output results.
