Presenter here. Yes that's pretty much it. There are many more convincing reasons than window functions in the second part which focuses on the execution of a 4GL, not the development with it.
Just to be clear: the talk uses hyperbolic language to make a point being that SQL is perfect for data processing, not for everything
- ak39 8y agoHi Luka, Your presentation was excellent. I'm not attacking you. I agreed with everything you said (at least the parts that I watched). My _rant_ (or attack), instead is with the _phenomenon_ we were so strongly and needlessly gripped in for two whole decades. A cult phenomenon that had all the hallmarks of religious indoctrination. You said: "Just to be clear: the talk uses hyperbolic language to make a point being that SQL is perfect for data processing, not for everything" I agree. SQL isn't useful for all cases. But those cases are few.
