PostgreSQL Query Rewriting Techniques The previous articles in this series covered performance problems you fix by adding indexes, restructuring joins, or tuning memory. This one is about the queries where the plan is "fine" — every node is doing something reasonable — but the query itself is asking the wrong question, producing unnecessarily large intermediate results or forcing the planner dow

More rules should mean better output. That's the intuition. I spent weeks building a comprehensive CLAUDE.md — 200 lines covering naming conventions, security rules, error handling, architectural patterns, import ordering, type safety requirements, and more. I was proud of it. I'd thought through every scenario. Then I scored the output. 79.0 / 100. My carefully crafted documentation was actively
SQL is widely known for data querying and manipulation but systems do grow; data becomes larger; processes become repetitive and operations become sensitive. SQL has some features which enables it to be considered a fully fledged programming language. Some of the features which I discuss in this article are procedures, functions and transactions. Each of these concepts serve distinct purposes. Sto
Hi 👋, In this post we shall explore Bedrock's structured KB with this architecture: Upload CSVs to S3 > SNS Queue > Crawl data with Glue > Query with Redshift > Bedrock KB > Query with LLM. Let's do some of this with code. Let's get started. Clone the repo and switch to the project directory. git clone [email protected]:networkandcode/networkandcode.github.io.git cd structured-kb-demo/ Do a uv sync
Subqueries vs. CTEs in SQL: A Practical Guide to Writing Cleaner, Smarter Queries Whether you're just getting comfortable with SQL or leveling up your data skills, two tools will come up again and again when working with complex queries: subqueries and Common Table Expressions (CTEs). They solve similar problems — breaking a complex query into manageable pieces — but they do it in different ways
Have you ever looked at code you wrote six months ago and thought: "Who wrote this monster?"? Relax, it happens to all of us. In software engineering, writing code that a machine understands is the easy part. The real challenge is writing code that other humans (including your future self) can understand, maintain, and scale. This is exactly where Software Design Principles come into play. In this
