我不知道你的列的确切名称，但它应该是这样的:

SELECT userid, value
FROM users u1
WHERE date = (
    SELECT MAX(date)
    FROM users u2
    WHERE u1.userid = u2.userid
)

select userid, value, date
  from thetable t1 ,
       ( select t2.userid, max(t2.date) date2 
           from thetable t2 
          group by t2.userid ) t3
 where t3.userid t1.userid and
       t3.date2 = t1.date

恕我直言，这是可行的。HTH

Select  
   UserID,  
   Value,  
   Date  
From  
   Table,  
   (  
      Select  
          UserID,  
          Max(Date) as MDate  
      From  
          Table  
      Group by  
          UserID  
    ) as subQuery  
Where  
   Table.UserID = subQuery.UserID and  
   Table.Date = subQuery.mDate  

难道一个qualified子句不是既简单又最好吗?

select userid, my_date, ...
from users
qualify rank() over (partition by userid order by my_date desc) = 1

对于上下文，在Teradata这里一个像样的大小测试运行在17秒与这个合格版本和在23秒与“内联视图”/Aldridge解决方案#1。

以下查询可以工作:

SELECT user_id, value, date , row_number() OVER (PARTITION BY user_id ORDER BY date desc) AS rn
FROM table_name
WHERE rn= 1

在PostgreSQL 8.4或更高版本中，你可以这样使用:

select user_id, user_value_1, user_value_2
  from (select user_id, user_value_1, user_value_2, row_number()
          over (partition by user_id order by user_date desc) 
        from users) as r
  where r.row_number=1
