Each function uses the rows in the current frame, which, per the window definition shown, extends from the first partition row to the current row. For the NTH_VALUE() calls, the current frame does not always include the requested row; in such cases, the return value is NULL. LAG(expr...
(), which produces the row number of each row within its partition. In this case, rows are numbered per country. By default, partition rows are unordered and row numbering is nondeterministic. To sort partition rows, include anORDER BYclause within the window definition. The query uses ...
In this blog post, we introduce the new window function feature that was added inApache Spark. Window functions allow users of Spark SQL to calculate results such as the rank of a given row or a moving average over a range of input rows. They significantly improve the expressiveness of Spar...

It is also possible to specify which rows to include for the window function (for example, the current row and all preceding rows). See Window Frames for more details. Scope Window functions were introduced in SQL:2003, and their definition was expanded in subsequent versions of the standard....
AnORDER BYin a window definition applies within individual partitions. To sort the result set as a whole, include anORDER BYat the query top level. frame_clause: A frame is a subset of the current partition and the frame clause specifies how to define the subset. The frame clause has man...

We have implemented this new window syntax in SQL++, an SQL extension that supports querying semistructured data, on top of AsterixDB, a Big Data Management System, thus allowing us to process window queries over large datasets in a parallel and efficient manner....
