lets start from here. you have 2 tables:
test=*# select * from source1;
i
---
1
2
3
(3 rows)
test=*# select * from source2;
i
---
1
2
3
(3 rows)
You can combine this 2 tables via cross join:
test=*# select * from source1 cross join (select * from source2) x;
i | i
---+---
1 | 1
1 | 2
1 | 3
2 | 1
2 | 2
2 | 3
3 | 1
3 | 2
3 | 3
(9 rows)
as you can see there are 9 different combinations. You can insert all the
different combinations into a destination table:
test=*# create table destination (s1 int, s2 int);
CREATE TABLE
test=*# insert into destination select * from source1 cross join (select * from
source2) x;
INSERT 0 9
test=*# select * from destination ;
s1 | s2
----+----
1 | 1
1 | 2
1 | 3
2 | 1
2 | 2
2 | 3
3 | 1
3 | 2
3 | 3
(9 rows)
That's all, or? Keep in mind: you have N * M different combinations from the 2
tables.
