Oh for sure! I was answering this question: > . Is there any reason why it is not provided as part of the library ? And assuming that the reason was mainly that the developers building Kafka Streams aren't typically targeting analytics use cases in the same way that Spark is. Not that there is any reason those aggregations should not be in Kafka Streams, I'm sure that would be great! :) On Wed, Apr 28, 2021 at 3:50 PM Parthasarathy, Mohan <mpart...@hpe.com> wrote: > Andrew, > > I am not sure I understand.
