## Example: Complex Migration with Data Migration

```ruby
# db/migrate/20240115120500_add_polymorphic_commentable.rb
class AddPolymorphicCommentable < ActiveRecord::Migration[7.1]
  def up
    # Add new polymorphic columns
    add_reference :comments, :commentable, polymorphic: true, index: true

    # Migrate existing data
    reversible do |dir|
      dir.up do
        execute <<-SQL
          UPDATE comments
          SET commentable_type = 'Article',
              commentable_id = article_id
          WHERE article_id IS NOT NULL
        SQL
      end
    end

    # Add NOT NULL constraint after data migration
    change_column_null :comments, :commentable_type, false
    change_column_null :comments, :commentable_id, false

    # Remove old column (in a separate migration in production)
    # remove_reference :comments, :article, index: true, foreign_key: true
  end

  def down
    add_reference :comments, :article, foreign_key: true

    execute <<-SQL
      UPDATE comments
      SET article_id = commentable_id
      WHERE commentable_type = 'Article'
    SQL

    remove_reference :comments, :commentable, polymorphic: true
  end
end
```

## Example: Advanced Indexing

```ruby
# db/migrate/20240115120600_add_advanced_indexes.rb
class AddAdvancedIndexes < ActiveRecord::Migration[7.1]
  disable_ddl_transaction!

  def change
    # Partial index for published articles only
    add_index :articles, :published_at,
              where: "published = true",
              name: 'index_articles_on_published_at_where_published',
              algorithm: :concurrently

    # Expression index for case-insensitive email lookup
    add_index :users, 'LOWER(email)',
              name: 'index_users_on_lower_email',
              unique: true,
              algorithm: :concurrently

    # Composite index for common query pattern
    add_index :articles, [:user_id, :published, :published_at],
              name: 'index_articles_on_user_published_date',
              algorithm: :concurrently

    # GIN index for full-text search
    add_index :articles, "to_tsvector('english', title || ' ' || body)",
              using: :gin,
              name: 'index_articles_on_searchable_text',
              algorithm: :concurrently

    # GIN index for JSONB column
    add_index :articles, :metadata,
              using: :gin,
              name: 'index_articles_on_metadata',
              algorithm: :concurrently
  end
end
```

## Example: JSONB Column Migration

```ruby
# db/migrate/20240115120700_add_metadata_to_articles.rb
class AddMetadataToArticles < ActiveRecord::Migration[7.1]
  def change
    add_column :articles, :metadata, :jsonb, default: {}, null: false
    add_column :articles, :settings, :jsonb, default: {}, null: false

    # Add GIN index for JSONB queries
    add_index :articles, :metadata, using: :gin
    add_index :articles, :settings, using: :gin

    # Add check constraint
    add_check_constraint :articles,
                         "jsonb_typeof(metadata) = 'object'",
                         name: 'metadata_is_object'
  end
end
```

## Example: Database View

```ruby
# db/migrate/20240115120800_create_article_stats_view.rb
class CreateArticleStatsView < ActiveRecord::Migration[7.1]
  def up
    execute <<-SQL
      CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW article_stats AS
      SELECT
        articles.id,
        articles.title,
        articles.user_id,
        articles.published_at,
        COUNT(DISTINCT comments.id) AS comments_count,
        COUNT(DISTINCT likes.id) AS likes_count,
        articles.view_count,
        COALESCE(AVG(ratings.score), 0) AS avg_rating,
        COUNT(DISTINCT ratings.id) AS ratings_count
      FROM articles
      LEFT JOIN comments ON comments.article_id = articles.id
      LEFT JOIN likes ON likes.article_id = articles.id
      LEFT JOIN ratings ON ratings.article_id = articles.id
      WHERE articles.published = true
      GROUP BY articles.id, articles.title, articles.user_id, articles.published_at, articles.view_count
    SQL
  end

  def down
    execute "DROP VIEW IF EXISTS article_stats"
  end
end

# app/models/article_stat.rb
class ArticleStat < ApplicationRecord
  self.primary_key = 'id'

  belongs_to :article
  belongs_to :user

  def readonly?
    true
  end
end
```

## Example: Polymorphic Association Model

```ruby
# app/models/comment.rb
class Comment < ApplicationRecord
  belongs_to :user
  belongs_to :commentable, polymorphic: true
  belongs_to :parent, class_name: 'Comment', optional: true
  has_many :replies, class_name: 'Comment', foreign_key: 'parent_id', dependent: :destroy
  has_many :likes, as: :likeable, dependent: :destroy

  validates :body, presence: true, length: { minimum: 3, maximum: 1000 }

  scope :top_level, -> { where(parent_id: nil) }
  scope :recent, -> { order(created_at: :desc) }
  scope :with_author, -> { includes(:user) }
  scope :for_commentable, ->(commentable) {
    where(commentable_type: commentable.class.name, commentable_id: commentable.id)
  }

  # Efficient nested loading
  scope :with_nested_replies, -> {
    includes(:user, replies: [:user, replies: :user])
  }

  def reply?
    parent_id.present?
  end
end

# app/models/concerns/commentable.rb
module Commentable
  extend ActiveSupport::Concern

  included do
    has_many :comments, as: :commentable, dependent: :destroy

    scope :with_comments_count, -> {
      left_joins(:comments)
        .select("#{table_name}.*, COUNT(comments.id) as comments_count")
        .group("#{table_name}.id")
    }
  end

  def comments_count
    comments.count
  end
end
```

## Example: Complex Queries with CTEs

```ruby
# app/models/article.rb
class Article < ApplicationRecord
  include Commentable

  belongs_to :user
  belongs_to :category, optional: true
  has_many :likes, as: :likeable, dependent: :destroy
  has_many :ratings, dependent: :destroy
  has_and_belongs_to_many :tags

  validates :title, presence: true, length: { minimum: 5, maximum: 200 }
  validates :body, presence: true, length: { minimum: 50 }

  # Use counter cache for performance
  counter_culture :user, column_name: 'articles_count'

  scope :published, -> { where(published: true) }
  scope :with_stats, -> {
    left_joins(:comments, :likes)
      .select(
        'articles.*',
        'COUNT(DISTINCT comments.id) AS comments_count',
        'COUNT(DISTINCT likes.id) AS likes_count'
      )
      .group('articles.id')
  }

  # Complex CTE query for trending articles
  scope :trending, -> (days: 7) {
    from(<<~SQL.squish, :articles)
      WITH article_engagement AS (
        SELECT
          articles.id,
          articles.title,
          articles.published_at,
          COUNT(DISTINCT comments.id) * 2 AS comment_score,
          COUNT(DISTINCT likes.id) AS like_score,
          articles.view_count / 10 AS view_score,
          EXTRACT(EPOCH FROM (NOW() - articles.published_at)) / 3600 AS hours_old
        FROM articles
        LEFT JOIN comments ON comments.commentable_type = 'Article'
                          AND comments.commentable_id = articles.id
        LEFT JOIN likes ON likes.likeable_type = 'Article'
                       AND likes.likeable_id = articles.id
        WHERE articles.published = true
          AND articles.published_at > NOW() - INTERVAL '#{days} days'
        GROUP BY articles.id, articles.title, articles.published_at, articles.view_count
      ),
      ranked_articles AS (
        SELECT
          *,
          (comment_score + like_score + view_score) / POWER(hours_old + 2, 1.5) AS trending_score
        FROM article_engagement
      )
      SELECT articles.*
      FROM articles
      INNER JOIN ranked_articles ON ranked_articles.id = articles.id
      ORDER BY ranked_articles.trending_score DESC
    SQL
  }

  # Full-text search with PostgreSQL
  scope :search, ->(query) {
    where(
      "to_tsvector('english', title || ' ' || body) @@ plainto_tsquery('english', ?)",
      query
    ).order(
      Arel.sql("ts_rank(to_tsvector('english', title || ' ' || body), plainto_tsquery('english', #{connection.quote(query)})) DESC")
    )
  }

  # Window function for ranking within categories
  scope :ranked_by_category, -> {
    select(
      'articles.*',
      'RANK() OVER (PARTITION BY category_id ORDER BY view_count DESC) AS category_rank'
    )
  }

  # Efficient batch loading with includes
  scope :with_full_associations, -> {
    includes(
      :user,
      :category,
      :tags,
      comments: [:user, :replies]
    )
  }

  # JSONB queries
  scope :with_metadata_key, ->(key) {
    where("metadata ? :key", key: key)
  }

  scope :with_metadata_value, ->(key, value) {
    where("metadata->:key = :value", key: key, value: value.to_json)
  }

  # Store accessor for JSONB
  store_accessor :metadata, :featured, :sponsored, :external_id, :source_url
  store_accessor :settings, :allow_comments, :notify_author, :show_in_feed

  def increment_view_count!
    increment!(:view_count)
    # Or use Redis for high-traffic scenarios
    # Rails.cache.increment("article:#{id}:views")
  end

  def average_rating
    ratings.average(:score).to_f.round(2)
  end
end
```

## Example: N+1 Query Optimization

```ruby
# BAD - N+1 queries
articles = Article.published.limit(10)
articles.each do |article|
  puts article.user.name                    # N+1 on users
  puts article.comments.count               # N+1 on comments
  article.comments.each do |comment|
    puts comment.user.name                  # N+1 on comment users
  end
end

# GOOD - Optimized with eager loading
articles = Article.published
                  .includes(:user, comments: :user)
                  .limit(10)

articles.each do |article|
  puts article.user.name                    # No query
  puts article.comments.size                # No query (loaded)
  article.comments.each do |comment|
    puts comment.user.name                  # No query
  end
end

# BETTER - Use select and group for counts
articles = Article.published
                  .includes(:user)
                  .left_joins(:comments)
                  .select('articles.*, COUNT(comments.id) AS comments_count')
                  .group('articles.id')
                  .limit(10)

articles.each do |article|
  puts article.user.name
  puts article.comments_count               # From SELECT, no count query
end
```

## Example: Advanced Query Object

```ruby
# app/queries/articles/search_query.rb
module Articles
  class SearchQuery
    attr_reader :relation

    def initialize(relation = Article.all)
      @relation = relation.extending(Scopes)
    end

    def call(params)
      @relation
        .then { |r| filter_by_category(r, params[:category_id]) }
        .then { |r| filter_by_tags(r, params[:tag_ids]) }
        .then { |r| filter_by_date_range(r, params[:start_date], params[:end_date]) }
        .then { |r| search_text(r, params[:query]) }
        .then { |r| sort_results(r, params[:sort], params[:direction]) }
    end

    private

    def filter_by_category(relation, category_id)
      return relation unless category_id.present?
      relation.where(category_id: category_id)
    end

    def filter_by_tags(relation, tag_ids)
      return relation unless tag_ids.present?

      relation.joins(:articles_tags)
              .where(articles_tags: { tag_id: tag_ids })
              .group('articles.id')
              .having('COUNT(DISTINCT articles_tags.tag_id) = ?', tag_ids.size)
    end

    def filter_by_date_range(relation, start_date, end_date)
      return relation unless start_date.present? && end_date.present?

      relation.where(published_at: start_date.beginning_of_day..end_date.end_of_day)
    end

    def search_text(relation, query)
      return relation unless query.present?
      relation.search(query)
    end

    def sort_results(relation, sort_by, direction)
      direction = direction&.downcase == 'asc' ? 'ASC' : 'DESC'

      case sort_by&.to_sym
      when :popular
        relation.order(view_count: direction.downcase)
      when :rated
        relation.left_joins(:ratings)
                .group('articles.id')
                .order(Arel.sql("AVG(ratings.score) #{direction}"))
      else
        relation.order(published_at: direction.downcase)
      end
    end

    module Scopes
      def with_engagement_metrics
        left_joins(:comments, :likes)
          .select(
            'articles.*',
            'COUNT(DISTINCT comments.id) AS comments_count',
            'COUNT(DISTINCT likes.id) AS likes_count'
          )
          .group('articles.id')
      end
    end
  end
end

# Usage
articles = Articles::SearchQuery.new(Article.published)
                                  .call(params)
                                  .with_engagement_metrics
                                  .page(params[:page])
```

## Example: Database Performance Test

```ruby
# spec/performance/article_queries_spec.rb
require 'rails_helper'

RSpec.describe 'Article queries performance', type: :request do
  before(:all) do
    # Create test data
