Real-Time Data Sync: Keeps all systems updated instantly.

Improved ETL Processes: Reduces latency and improves pipeline efficiency.

Lower Overhead: Operates with minimal impact on system performance.

Enhanced Reporting: Provides up-to-date data for analytics tools.

How SAP CDC Works

 Log-Based Capture: Monitors changes via database logs.

Event Streaming: Sends change events to target systems in real time.

ETL Integration: Integrates seamlessly with data pipelines for further processing.

Applications of SAP CDC

Data Replication: Keep multiple databases synchronized.

Data Lakes and Warehousing: Feed real-time data into analytical environments.

Cloud Migration: Smoothly transfer data from legacy systems to modern platforms.

Advanced Use Cases

SAP CDC is especially valuable for companies operating across multiple regions. By ensuring data consistency and real-time availability, businesses can support global operations more effectively. SAP CDC also plays a vital role in machine learning workflows, providing up-to-date training data for AI models.

Getting Started with SAP CDC

Begin by identifying the source systems and changes you want to capture. Set up the integration using SAP tools or connectors, then test the pipeline to ensure accuracy. Focus on configuring alerts for failures to ensure continuous operations.
