Why is it so hard to keep up with demands for
real-time views into your data?
OLTP Databases
OLTP databases can’t handle data-intensive queries
Data Warehouse - OLAP
Data warehouses lack the freshness and cost-efficiency required for online services.
Do-it-yourself (DIY)
Do-it-yourself (DIY) solutions are complex to operate, and often require specialized talent.
Materialize is powered by a revolutionary engine
Built on Timely and Differential Dataflow, invented by Materialize co-founder Frank McSherry, Materialize correctly and incrementally maintains views, which can be composed into real-time data products. Scale to >1M updates per second, while maintaining freshness of single digit seconds, and query response times in single-digit milliseconds.
Work to maintain views is done continually and incrementally and efficiently on inserts, updates, and deletes. Achieves great price performance by leveraging a mix of memory and disk.
Join fast-changing data across sources with strong consistency. Our implementation of virtual time ensures all data throughout Materialize moves from one consistent state to the next as inputs change.
Access via standard SQL
Incrementally Maintained Views
Write complex SQL transformations as materialized views that efficiently update themselves as inputs change.
Learn MoreBuilt for JOINs
Multi-way, complex join support, even across databases - all in standard SQL.
Learn MoreSliding Windows
Write queries that filter to a window of time anchored to the present, Materialize will update results as time advances.
Learn MoreSQL Subscriptions
Write alerts as SQL queries with filters and subscribe to new rows as they appear.

For use cases that get better with
fresher data and more data sources.
Data-intensive UIs
Pull together data from your operational databases quickly and efficiently to improve interactivity and page-load times.
Generative AI
Deliver up-to-date context for retrieval augmented generation (RAG) pipelines and LLM-powered agents without straining your databases.
Real-Time Process Optimization
Get fresh, consistent views of your business across data sources to build operational dashboards that help you quickly and confidently react to changes.
Automation and Alerting
Remove delays and move faster with real-time alerts and automated actions on fresh, trustworthy data.
Online Feature Store
Keep complex features up to date efficiently and use them to do things like fraud detection.
Anomaly Detection
Stream data from multiple sources in real-time and use SQL to identify patterns that deviate from normal behavior.
Three patterns for simplifying your data architecture
Query Offload
Scale complex read queries more efficiently than a read replica, and without the invalidation headaches of a cache. Simply send updates to Materialize, create materialized views using SQL, and directly query the correct, incrementally maintained results.
Integration Hub
Extract, load, and incrementally transform data from multiple sources. Create live views of your data that can be queried directly or loaded into systems like data warehouses or stream processing platforms.
Operational Data Mesh
Use SQL to create and deliver real-time, strongly consistent data products to streamline microservice communication and coordination across domains.
Seamlessly integrate with your existing stack
Augment your data architecture to power services and business processes with fresh, correct data. Create Lambda and Kappa architectures with ease.
