Most Data Analytics Applied

MediumSQL · PostgreSQL

Problem

Tell me about the project where you applied the most data analytics, and what impact it had.

Using the provided project, analysis-run, and impact data, write a PostgreSQL query that identifies the project with the greatest completed analytics activity while reporting impact for every project.

Output

  1. One row per project with project_id, project_name, completed_analysis_count, and total_impact
  2. Include projects without analysis runs or impact records, treating missing totals as zero
  3. Order by completed analysis count descending, total impact descending, and project ID ascending
