Vertica SQL for running count distinct and running conditional count - sql

Question

I'm trying to build a department level score table based on a deeper product url level score table.
Date is not consecutive
Not all urls got score updates at same day (independent to each other)
dist_url should be running count distinct (cumulative count distinct)
dist urls and urls score >=30 are both count distinct
What I have now is:
Date url Store Dept Page Score
10/1 a US A X 10
10/1 b US A X 30
10/1 c US A X 60
10/4 a US A X 20
10/4 d US A X 60
10/6 b US A X 22
10/9 a US A X 40
10/9 e US A X 10
Date Store Dept Page dist urls urls score >=30
10/1 US A X 3 2
10/4 US A X 4 3
10/6 US A X 4 2
10/9 US A X 5 2
I think the dist_url can be done by using window function, just not sure on query.
Current query is as below, but it's wrong since not cumulative count distinct:
SELECT
bm.AnalysisDate,
su.SoID AS Store,
su.DptCaID AS DTID,
su.PageTypeID AS PTID,
COUNT(DISTINCT bm.SeoURLID) AS NumURLsWithDupScore,
SUM(CASE WHEN bm.DuplicationScore > 30 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) AS Over30Count
FROM csn_seo.tblBotifyMetrics bm
INNER JOIN csn_seo.tblSEOURLs su
ON bm.SeoURLID = su.ID
WHERE su.DptCaID IS NOT NULL
AND su.DptCaID <> 0
AND su.PageTypeID IS NOT NULL
AND su.PageTypeID <> -1
AND bm.iscompliant = 1
GROUP BY bm.AnalysisDate, su.SoID, su.DptCaID, su.PageTypeID;
Please let me know if anyone has any idea.

Answer 1

Based on your question, you seem to want two levels of logic:
select date, store, dept,
sum(sum(start)) over (partition by dept, page order by date) as distinct_urls,
sum(sum(start_30)) over (partition by dept, page order by date) as distinct_urls_30
from ((select store, dept, page, url, min(date) as date, 1 as start, 0 as start_30
from t
group by store, dept, page, url
) union all
(select store, dept, page, url, min(date) as date, 0, 1
from t
where score >= 30
group by store, dept, page, url
)
) t
group by date, store, dept, page;
I don't understand how your query is related to your question.

Try as I might, I don't get your output either:
But I think you can avoid UNION SELECTs - Does this do what you expect?
NULLS don't figure in COUNT DISTINCTs - and here you can combine an aggregate expression with an OLAP one ...
And Vertica has named windows to increase readability ....
WITH
input(Date,url,Store,Dept,Page,Score) AS (
SELECT DATE '2019-10-01','a','US','A','X',10
