Vector databases need fresh context to be useful.
The challenge: keeping attributes up to date without burning compute or building brittle pipelines.
Materialize fixes this with incremental updates, giving you faster, cheaper, fresher vector search. bit.ly/3KddzMs

We’ve released a major improvement to our memory spilling infrastructure:
Materialize now uses swap to scale SQL workloads beyond RAM.
✅ Faster hydration
✅ Efficient memory utilization
✅ Bigger workloads supported

At our last on-site, the Materialize R&D team held a hackathon.
8 projects. 1.5 days. Highlights:
– SQL tutorial game
– WASM UDFs
– API endpoints from views
– S3 as a consensus layer
One shipped already. Others might next. Read the full recap → bit.ly/4lo4YmR

Waiting for CI hurts. In July, we cut our runtime by up to 86%. From 23+ min builds to under 2 min, and full runs in as little as 7 min.
Caching, parallelization, smarter builds, and a bit of [libeatmydata] magic.

Materialize can "push down" the filters in your query to its storage layer to fetch less data — and thanks to a few cool static analysis tricks, this works for more queries than you might expect. To see how it works, check out the blog: bit.ly/475FBCL

I refreshed a blog post draft on streaming the Bluesky firehose through @materialize.com. Some experience tidied up the examples, made things a bit more efficient, and told a different story (now with less cloture).

If your data layer can’t reflect the consequences of an agent’s action in real time, it’s not just inefficient—it can lead to disaster.
