Sessionize App Events and Cart Conversion

SQL practice question · Hard · Window Functions · Zepto, Myntra

Split each user's events into sessions: a new session starts at the user's first event and whenever more than 30 minutes (1800 seconds) passed since that user's previous event (exactly 30 minutes stays in the same session). A cart session has at least one 'add_to_cart'; a converted session has both 'add_to_cart' and 'checkout' in the SAME session. Return one row: total_sessions, cart_sessions, converted_sessions and conversion_pct = 100 * converted / cart sessions, ROUND to 1.
