How to Aggregate Periodic Snapshot Data in Python
Generates mock snapshot data and groups values into periods to compute average aggregates with Python's standard library.
import random
from collections import defaultdict
def snapshot_aggregate(n=10, period=3):
data = defaultdict(list)
for i in range(n):
key = f"item_{i % period}"
data[key].append(random.randint(1, 100))
return dict(data)
def aggregate_periodic(snapshots, period=3):
result = {}

Simulates watermarking in a streaming pipeline by classifying events as on-time or late using timestamps and delays.
from datetime import datetime, timedelta
from typing import List, Tuple
def watermark_mock(
events: List[Tuple[datetime, str]], watermark_delay: timedelta, max_delay: timedelta
) -> Tuple[List[Tuple[datetime, str]], List[Tuple[datetime, str]]]:
