Answer
Our system applies data binning to align batch start and end times to fixed 30-second intervals for analytics consistency and aggregation purposes.
Additional Details
Batch End Times are pushed to the end of the current 30-second bin, so an end time logged at 10:45 will appear as either 10:45:29 or 10:45:59.
Batch Start Times are pulled to the beginning of the current 30-second bin, resulting in values such as 11:45:00 or 11:45:30.
This alignment ensures consistent time boundaries across datasets, which simplifies downstream analysis and reporting. The small gaps you’re observing are expected and a result of this binning logic.
Limitations
Due to analytic consistency batach start and end will always have a fixed 30-second interval.
