GREATEST(), LEAST()関数はPostgreSQLだけNULLの扱いが違う

Posted at

SQLには複数レコードから最大値/最小値を求める集約関数のMAX(), MIN()関数がありますが、そうでなく複数指定した引数のうちの最大値/最小値を求める関数を、SQL非標準ながら複数のRDBが持っています。
それがGREATEST(), LEAST()関数。

しかしこの両関数に渡した引数値にひとつでもNULLが含まれていた場合の振る舞いがPostgreSQLだけ違うので製品移行の際に注意が必要です。

RDB NULLが含まれた場合
Oracle NULLを返す
DB2
MySQL
SQLite
(多引数`MAX()`, `MIN()`)
BigQuery
**PostgreSQL** **NULLを無視し残りの値の最大または最小**
SQL Server (非搭載)
