Motivation
Users need a practical way to choose a cluster size before they know the hydration memory requirements of their workload. The improved hydration visibility project provides historical replica and object-level observations that make a large-first sizing workflow possible.
Project context: https://app.notion.com/p/materialize/Improved-hydration-visibility-3a513f48d37b806cb3a5e7f5b5a9c1e6
Description
User impact
Users can use persisted hydration history to select a cluster size with sufficient memory and hydration headroom, reducing repeated failures caused by starting with an undersized cluster.
Verification
The documented SQL was validated against Materialize Emulator v26.41.0-dev. Both HTML and agent-readable Markdown documentation rendered successfully, and the system catalog reference checks passed.
