Querying ecommerce data often requires writing manual SQL queries or building complex dashboards. This can become a major engineering grind when non-technical teams need fast answers from a read-only MySQL endpoint.
You can fix this by building a chatbot that lets you query ecommerce data in plain English. This setup uses LLM-generated SQL and includes critical safety layers to keep everything secure.
Here is what you need to know about the project setup:
- Implements a secure database layer and an SQL guard
- Houses chat logic directly within the application
- Uses fixture data for reliable local development
- Deploys smoothly using the standard Upsun configuration
Check out the full technical write-up to see how these safety layers stack up and how to deploy it yourself:
