Abstract
The present disclosure provides methods for performing a computation with an aggregate function using a database query, wherein the database query joins a plurality of database tables and includes a distinct aggregation function, which, when executed against one or more databases aggregates only values of database records corresponding to distinct keys by which the tables are joined, regardless of the cardinality of the joined tables. Related devices and systems are also provided.
