"Essentially a database that updates continuously materialized views upon write"

I do that now in my event-sourced application with stupid simple mysql. It is trivial to implement such functionality into the app layer and not into the storage where you are limited by the third party sw itself.

I think the difference is some algorithm magic that is doing diff rather than complete recalculations.

Oh yes and it's in Rust, which is sexy.

Doesn't PostgreSQL support materialized views now, also? It's not just about MySQL.
