Low Code Medallion: Using Lakehouse Materialized views

Proposed session for SQLBits 2026

TL; DR

This session explores how they simplify medallion architecture creation into a low-code — and in some cases near no-code — experience, significantly changing how data engineering pipelines are built. You’ll learn how the feature works internally, its limitations, where it fits best, and how to build Materialized Lake Views to streamline and modernize your data pipelines.

Session Details

Materialized lake views are a gaming changing feature for lakehouses and medallion architecture creation.

They transform the creation of a medallion architecture in a low code task, creating big change possibilities for the data engineering work.

The feature internals has it's limitations, defining what scenarios it work for and what scenarios it doesn't.

Discover how this new feature works, their internals and how to build the materializade lake views .

You will find how to use this feature to get your pipelines and medallion architecture closer to become a no code one.

3 things you'll get out of this session

- What are materialized lake views - How materialized lake views work - How to use constraints for data quality control
