When it comes to database queries, dates are everywhere, and SQL date ranges bring so much usefulness to the table. To fetch data that belongs to a specific timeframe, you can use date ranges in practical ways by answering common questions about the topic. A common scenario is needing to get data on employees that were hired during a given month or revenue data from Q2. With the help of date ranges, we can query data from a given period. The DATERANGE type in PostgreSQL simplifies the usage of SQL date ranges, resulting in simpler queries that are less likely to contain errors. By using comparison operators as usual, you can compare date ranges and get events whose periods exactly match or have more days than the specified range. Working with dates is an inevitable part of life when writing SQL queries, but PostgreSQL's DATERANGE type makes it easier to handle date ranges in a way that simplifies your queries and reduces errors.
