re: computing aggregates, we'll have two nicer, higher-level solutions to this soon
1. components that wrap up aggregation for you when it's worth having denormalization -- you could imagine this as an ORM so you can't "accidentally" miss recomputing the aggregate. these might use "trigger" type patterns on dependent tables
2. if you're okay with slightly relaxed consistency, we're looking into SQL-based olap into the product in Q3. mostly for these kinds of reasons -- running arbitrary calculations across large datasets without needing to e.g. stream stuff out to a data warehouse using fivetran or whatever
a lot of dashboard-type applications will like (2) for when you're doing lightweight "reporting" in the product
it's a common need
Ooo super exciting thanks Jamie! 🙂 I look forward to tinkering with it when you guys are ready!
