Example: Aggregate function pushdown v5

MongoDB Foreign Data Wrapper supports pushdown for the following aggregate functions:

AVG - Calculates the average of a set of values.
COUNT - Counts rows in a specified table or view.
MIN - Gets the minimum value in a set of values.
MAX - Gets the maximum value in a set of values.
SUM - Calculates the sum of values.

Postgres data set:

-- load extension first time after install
CREATE EXTENSION mongo_fdw;

-- create server object
CREATE SERVER mongo_server FOREIGN DATA WRAPPER mongo_fdw OPTIONS (address 'localhost', port '27017');

-- create user mapping
CREATE USER MAPPING FOR public SERVER mongo_server OPTIONS (username 'edb', password 'edb');

-- create foreign table
CREATE FOREIGN TABLE emp (_id NAME, eid INTEGER, deptid INTEGER) SERVER mongo_server OPTIONS (database 'edb', collection 'emp');

-- insert into table
INSERT INTO emp VALUES (0, 100, 10);
INSERT INTO emp VALUES (0, 110, 10);
INSERT INTO emp VALUES (0, 120, 20);
INSERT INTO emp VALUES (0, 130, 30);

The output:

-- COUNT function
edb# EXPLAIN VERBOSE SELECT COUNT(*) FROM emp;

Output

-- MIN and SUM functions with GROUPBY
