Description

@fivetran-joemarkiewicz

Is there an existing feature request for this?

  • I have searched the existing issues

Describe the Feature

Essentially all models are materialized as tables. I don't imagine this is necessary, especially the staging models. We should consider an approach where staging models (besides the history models) are views and only necessary intermediate models are tables.

How would you implement this feature?

Change the materializations to be the above recommendation.

Describe alternatives you've considered

No response

Are you interested in contributing this feature?

  • Yes.
  • Yes, but I will need assistance.
  • No.

Anything else?

We should evaluate first if there is any reason why these are materialized as tables now. If there isn't a strong reason then we should switch the materialization in a future update.
