Oracle Change Data Captures (Oracle CDC)
Types of Change data capture ( CDC )
Synchronous CDC :- Captures changes synchronously on the source database into change tables.
This method uses internal database triggers to enable CDC. Capturing the change is part of the original transaction that introduces the change thus impacting the performance of the transaction.
Asynchronous Autolog CDC :- It requires a staging database separate from the source
database. Asynchronous Autolog CDC uses the database's redo transport services to transport redo log information from the source database to the staging database1. Changes are
captured at the staging database. The impact to the source system is minimal, but there is some latency between the original transaction and the change being captured.
Asynchronous Hotlog CDC :- Uses the online redo log files to capture changes. The original
transaction performs changes to the tables, causing information to be written to the redo log files. A separate process mines the redo log files and captures the changes in the change tables. There is a small latency between the original transaction and the change being captured. For
Asynchronous Hotlog CDC the change capture takes place on the same database.
Asynchronous Distributed Hotlog CDC :- It requires a staging database in order
to setup the change capture. As with the Asynchronous Hotlog CDC method the change capture is performed by a separate process on the source database. The change record
is then propagated to the staging database where the change is written to the change tables. Oracle Streams provides the underlying infrastructure for this CDC method. There is some latency between the original transaction and the change being captured. Asynchronous Distributed Hotlog CDC requires an Enterprise Edition database for both source and staging databases.
