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
