Neat! We're totally on the same page--incremental view maintenance not only makes materialized views a useful building block for data pipelines, it can make them much simpler, too!

So it is CTEs all the way down, a bag of dags. A raw table is just a view over the raw data, a cooked view is just a view of views, repeat.

Do you use any of the ideas of Noria? Cadence?

This is great, but at what COST?!

Mmmh I've been thinking a lot about generated/computed fields as I wanted to use them in pg. They were introduced in pg12 but only materialized.
