Thanks. I will look at these.
My problem is that my data set is ~1 billion records, and I need to group by several dimensions (so I have ~2000 composite factors) computing weighted averages for some fields along with weighted percentiles (0,25,50,75,100) for a smaller subset of the fields. Currently, I’m looking at the MonetDB internals to see if this is possible.
A “perfect” query would look like:
SELECT
sum(a*w)/sum(w) as wa_a,
sum(b*w)/sum(w) as wa_b,
weightedpercentile(a,w,0.25) as wp25_a,
weightedpercentile(a,w,0.50) as wp50_a
FROM
mytable
GROUP BY c,d HAVING sum(w) > 0

Poking around in the archives, it looks like I need to add a new MAL and link it to a C implementation.

Subject: Support for multi-column aggregate functions
All,
Does the current version of MonetDB support multi-column aggregate functions? I need to create a function which returns the "quantiles" of one column using another column as a weighting. It looks like PostgreSQL supports multi-column aggregates as of 8.2.
I could write an embedded R function to compute this, but want to know if it is even possible to pass in multiple columns.
Thanks,
Dave
