First and last day of last month in Redshift
In Redshift, you can use date_trunc()
(See online documentation).
For the first day of last month:
select date_trunc('month', current_date) - interval '1 month'
Or:
select date_add(month, -1, date_trunc('month', current_date))
For the last day of last month:
select date_trunc('month', current_date) - interval '1 day'
Or for last day in moth you can use a LAST_DAY Function. :) http://docs.aws.amazon.com/redshift/latest/dg/r_LAST_DAY.html
select last_day(current_date)
