All very good points. So I guess the answer would be "it depends". The reason I wanted more DB independence is that the DB structure is a WIP and may very well go through some changes before being finalized. So, writing complex queries would mean that these queries need to be modified if some changes occur. And if that happens modifying complex queries would be a lot harder task than modifying simple queries and increase the possibility of making a mistake.Jahirul Islam– Jahirul Islam2020-01-16 05:51:37 +00:00Commented Jan 16, 2020 at 5:51

@JahirulIslam Yes, this is a very valid argument if you target a cross db platform, or if you target a document oriented like db like Mongodb, where the joins require more gymnastics. But is it a real intention or just a possible future? And what about delivering the features fast and refactor later if needed? (which is in fact the idea behind my “combination” suggestions)Christophe– Christophe2020-01-16 06:47:52 +00:00Commented Jan 16, 2020 at 6:47

Currently, there is no real plan to target a different DB. I just need to make sure the SQLs don't get overcomplicated and remain maintainable without too much effort.Jahirul Islam– Jahirul Islam2020-01-16 07:06:59 +00:00Commented Jan 16, 2020 at 7:06

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. design-patterns), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
