Big fan here! I've been following the space since a bit of time, and I must say it's exciting. To me this is the future of apps where the Truth lives server-side, and everything reacts from there; With partial state evaluation lowering resource consumption to a minimum. Kafka Streams and Apache Flink seem to be focused on real-time analytics, and I wish they'd get there to stimulate the space. Are you affiliated with ReadySet?

  I'm pretty excited about it too! I remember when I initially started the research I was amazed that this didn't already exist. Some context: https://twitter.com/jonhoo/status/1511401461669720068 https://twitter.com/jonhoo/status/1511401461669720068 Basically, I co-founded the company around the time I graduated, but had had my fill of database research after six years of PhD. So I joined AWS to work on Rust while Alana (the CEO) took on leading ReadySet.

This is super exciting. Ever since I talked to you about Noria I've been telling people about this concept. I'm excited to see a production ready implementation of it.

I haven't read much about Noria other than this readme [0], but would like to know if you are familiar enough to contrast Materialize [1] with it in terms of perf, overhead, approach, and fundamental (design) principles?

  Back when we announced Materialize we got the same question in reverse! You can read my response from a few years back here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22362301 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22362301 Unfortunately I'm not privy to whatever improvements ReadySet has made in the past two years, so I can't comment on differences between ReadySet and Materialize. Perhaps Jon can, though!
