Nice post, I would suggest using a view to generate the product_facts structure instead of duplicating data, that way you don’t need to worry about populate it after every crud operation.

I like of the approach of having a physical table updated in every CRUD operation from the performance point of view but if performance is the issue I would consider a solution like Solr which is clearly outside the scope of this tutorial.

Why overload database with “product_facts” why we even need it ? can’t we directly access product table using some sort of query

Oh I see. You are using the facets only for the stats and not for the actual retrieval of products from DB.
