SQL Server Change Data Capture

SQL Server Change Data Capture (CDC) is a feature that tracks and records changes—such as inserts, updates, and deletions—to a database table. It captures these changes efficiently, storing details about what was changed and when. This allows organizations to monitor data modifications without affecting the normal operation of the database. CDC is useful for data warehousing, auditing, and syncing data between systems, providing a reliable way to keep track of database activity for analysis and reporting purposes.
