Interview Prompt

An SRE sizing next quarter's log storage wants to see how the load spreads across the servers writing to `server_logs`. Report how many log entries each server wrote, busiest first.

Summary

Every server keeps a diary. Find the ones that never stop writing.

How This Interview Works

  1. Read the vague prompt (just like a real interview)
  2. Ask clarifying questions to the AI interviewer
  3. Write and run your SQL against a real database
  4. Answer the interviewer's follow-up questions, then get a hire or no-hire decision
