> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Documentation, Streaming
> Affects Versions: 1.1.0
> Reporter: Fabian Hueske
>
> The streaming documentation does not describe how windows can be processed
> with FoldFunction or ReduceFunction and a subsequent WindowFunction. This
> combination allows for eager window aggregation (only a single element is
> kept in the window) and access of the Window object, e.g., to have access to
> the window's start and end time.
