Open the window to a world of possibilities with Snowflake window functions! You'll get the ball rolling by differentiating window functions from traditional functions.  Then, you'll learn how to provide a row number and ranking for each record in a query. Once you've nailed down the basics, you'll put the "window" in window functions, using PARTITION BY. You'll explore how to find and use the first and last value of a certain window before wrapping up with a sneak peek into aggregation functions.

Window Functions

Time to crank it up! In this chapter, you’ll take ranking functions to the next level. You’ll start with a variant of RANK, called DENSE_RANK, which handles ties in a bit of a different way. You’ll also explore a more robust version of the functions you saw in the previous lesson using NTH_VALUE. Next, you’ll create “buckets” of data using NTILE, which is more useful than you may think. You’ll also pick up a nifty little tool called CUME_DIST to find the number of records less than or equal to a certain record in a window. You’ll wrap up the chapter with one of the most powerful applications of window functions you’ve seen so far; LAG and LEAD.

You’ll start this final chapter with aggregation functions like AVG, COUNT, and SUM. You’ll compare the output of these functions to individual records in a  window, as well as to perform additional calculations. After this, you’ll master the most exciting application of window functions; running and moving calculations! You’ll start by calculating running averages and totals for different metrics for electric vehicle charging. Finally, you’ll wrap up the course by generating moving totals and averages with a sliding window!

Aggregate Window Functions

Sblocca una serie di nuovi strumenti per la risoluzione dei problemi grazie alla potenza delle window functions di Snowflake! In questo corso imparerai a usare gli strumenti necessari per affrontare problemi come identificare gli outlier nei tuoi dati e calcolare medie mobili.

Per prima cosa, distinguerai tra funzioni di aggregazione tradizionali e window functions. Capirai l’anatomia di una window function assegnando numeri di riga e classifiche a tutti i record in una query Snowflake. Una volta presa confidenza, abbinerai queste window functions a partizioni. Questo ti permetterà di creare gruppi ordinati di record e confrontare valori sequenziali.

Concluderai il corso con le funzioni finestra di tipo aggregazione e le medie mobili: due delle applicazioni più utili delle window functions per ripulire e analizzare i dati. Alla fine, avrai un nuovo set di competenze che darà una marcia in più alle tue query in Snowflake!
