SlidingWindow - Amazon CloudWatch
Services or capabilities described in AWS documentation might vary by Region. To see the differences applicable to the AWS European Sovereign Cloud Region, see the AWS European Sovereign Cloud User Guide.

SlidingWindow

An evaluation window that advances each time the alarm is evaluated, forming a rolling time window. This is the default evaluation window. A sliding window has no additional configuration options.

Choose a sliding window when you need the fastest detection and the calendar boundaries of the data don't matter, such as for continuous performance, latency, or resource-exhaustion monitoring.
