PostgreSQL Query Examples

1. Basic Queries

Natural Language: "Find all products sold in the last month with their categories."

SELECT 
    p.product_name,
    c.category_name,
    SUM(o.quantity) AS total_sold
FROM products p
JOIN categories c ON p.category_id = c.id
JOIN order_items o ON p.id = o.product_id
WHERE o.order_date >= DATE_TRUNC('month', CURRENT_DATE - INTERVAL '1 month')
GROUP BY p.product_name, c.category_name
ORDER BY total_sold DESC

2. Window Functions

Natural Language: "Show running total of sales by day with comparison to previous week."

SELECT 
    DATE_TRUNC('day', order_date) AS sale_date,
    SUM(amount) AS daily_sales,
    SUM(SUM(amount)) OVER (ORDER BY DATE_TRUNC('day', order_date)) AS running_total,
    LAG(SUM(amount), 7) OVER (ORDER BY DATE_TRUNC('day', order_date)) AS prev_week_sales
FROM orders
GROUP BY DATE_TRUNC('day', order_date)
ORDER BY

Common Use Cases for PostgreSQL AI Queries

1. Business Analytics

Natural Language: "Calculate monthly revenue growth percentage by product category."

WITH monthly_revenue AS (
    SELECT 
        DATE_TRUNC('month', order_date) AS month,
        category_id,
        SUM(amount) AS revenue
    FROM orders o
    JOIN products p ON o.product_id = p.id
    GROUP BY DATE_TRUNC('month', order_date), category_id
)
SELECT 
    month,
    category_id,
    revenue,
    ROUND(
        ((revenue - LAG(revenue) OVER (PARTITION BY category_id ORDER BY month)) 
        / LAG(revenue) OVER (PARTITION BY category_id ORDER BY month) * 100)::numeric, 
        2
    ) AS growth_percentage
FROM monthly_revenue
ORDER BY month DESC,

2. User Analytics

Natural Language: "Show user engagement metrics by cohort."

3. Inventory Analysis

Natural Language: "Find products needing restock based on sales velocity."

    • Cache frequently used results with materialized views.

Example Use Cases for PostgreSQL

Customer Segmentation

Natural Language: "Segment customers by purchase behavior and show trends."

WITH customer_metrics AS (
    SELECT 
        customer_id,
        COUNT(order_id) AS order_count,
        SUM(amount) AS total_spent,
        AVG(amount) AS avg_order_value,
        MAX(order_date) AS last_order_date,
        DATE_PART('day', NOW() - MAX(order_date)) AS days_since_last_order
    FROM orders
    GROUP BY customer_id
)
SELECT 
    CASE 
        WHEN order_count >= 10 AND days_since_last_order <= 30 THEN 'VIP'
        WHEN order_count >= 5 AND days_since_last_order <= 60 THEN 'Regular'
        WHEN days_since_last_order > 90 THEN 'At Risk'
        ELSE 'New'
    END AS customer_segment,
    COUNT(*) AS customer_count,
    ROUND(AVG(total_spent), 2) AS avg_customer_value
FROM customer_metrics
GROUP BY 1
ORDER BY avg_customer_value DESC
