An Introduction to Streaming SQL with Materialize

Streaming has changed the way we build and think about data pipelines, but at what cost? In this talk, we’ll introduce Materialize, a streaming database that lets you use standard SQL over streams of data and get low-latency, incrementally updated answers as the underlying data changes. We’ll cover the basic concepts of streaming SQL and highlight what makes Materialize unique in comparison to other tools, then tie it all together by building a simple streaming analytics pipeline — from data ingestion to visualization!
