Answer 1

  select t1.id, t1.count, SUM(t2.count) cumulative_sum
    from table t1 
        join table t2 on t1.id >= t2.id
    group by t1.id, t1.count

Step by step:

1- Given the following table:

select *
from table t1 
order by t1.id;

id  | count
 1  |  11
 2  |  12   
 3  |  13

select *
from table t1 
    join table t2 on t1.id >= t2.id
order by t1.id, t2.id;

id  | count | id | count
 1  | 11    | 1  |  11

 2  | 12    | 1  |  11
 2  | 12    | 2  |  12

 3  | 13    | 1  |  11
 3  | 13    | 2  |  12
 3  | 13    | 3  |  13

3- Step 3: Sum all count by t1.id group

select t1.id, t1.count, SUM(t2.count) cumulative_sum
from table t1 
    join table t2 on t1.id >= t2.id
group by t1.id, t1.count;


id  | count | cumulative_sum
 1  |  11   |    11
 2  |  12   |    23
