Two key constraints drive this: LLM context window limitations (due to transformer architecture's n² attention complexity) and rising memory costs from AI-driven chip shortages. Data platform teams will need to build production-grade context systems that transform business data into distilled semantic definitions, are cost-effective via incremental computation, serve data sub-second, and guarantee correctness. Materialize is positioned as a solution, using incremental computation and materialized views to build an operational data mesh that feeds live, consistent context to AI agents. A case study with Day AI illustrates how this approach enables a small team to maintain a fresh, queryable context layer for an AI-native CRM. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
