In this video, we dive deep into Common Table Expressions (CTEs) in PostgreSQL — a powerful feature that helps you write cleaner, more modular, and efficient SQL queries.

Whether you're a beginner exploring PostgreSQL or an advanced user refining your skills, this tutorial covers everything you need to know about WITH queries, including:

  • ✅ What is a CTE?

  • ✅ Syntax and structure

  • ✅ Benefits of using CTEs

  • ✅ Simple CTEs for temporary data sets

  • ✅ Recursive CTEs for generating sequences or traversing hierarchies

  • ✅ Data-Modifying CTEs using INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE

  • ✅ Using CTEs with JOINs to simplify complex multi-table queries

  • ✅ Materialization and performance tips

You'll see real-time PostgreSQL examples that demonstrate how CTEs can be applied to real-world scenarios like summarizing data, cleaning up subqueries, and chaining modifications.

📌 This video is part of our PostgreSQL Full Playlist, where we guide you step-by-step from basic concepts to advanced performance optimizations.
