Capture and Replication

Capture and replication are processes used to handle and transfer data efficiently. Capture refers to collecting data changes or updates from a source system, like recording new or modified information. Replication involves copying this captured data to another system or location, ensuring it stays synchronized. For example, in databases, capture might log new entries, and replication would send those updates to a backup database, keeping both in sync. This process helps with data backup, disaster recovery, and real-time information sharing across multiple systems, ensuring consistency and availability without affecting the original data source’s performance.
