Your question is Aggregate Alerts by Site. Start with the requirements and the two tables on the right.

Run and submit as often as you like. When you're ready, talk me through your approach or go straight to the code.

You need to log in / sign up to run or submit.

Problem

You are given two PostgreSQL tables from a Copeland monitoring workflow: sites and alerts. Write an SQL query that joins the tables and returns one row per site with the total number of alerts and the average alert severity. Include only active sites, and sort the result by total alerts descending, then by site name ascending.
