Explanation
The streamstats command calculates statistics on search results as each event is processed , maintaining a running total or other cumulative calculations. Unlike eventstats, which calculates statistics for the entire dataset at once, streamstats processes events sequentially. Here's why this works: Purpose of streamstats : This command is ideal for calculating cumulative statistics, such as running totals, averages, or counts, as events are returned by the search. Sequential Processing : streamstats applies statistical functions (e.g., count, sum, avg) incrementally to each event based on the order of the results.
