What I Learned
- Write efficient queries using joins, window functions, and subquery strategies.
- Model reporting logic directly in SQL for data-heavy application features.
- Optimize query structure for performance on larger datasets.
How I Applied This
- Reduced query latency by restructuring joins and filtering earlier in the execution plan.
- Built reusable SQL patterns for KPI dashboards and operational reports.
- Improved reporting consistency with cleaner schema relationships.
