GLOSSARY > CHANGE DATA CAPTURE

Change Data Capture

A set of software design patterns used to determine and track the data that has changed so that action can be taken using the changed data.

Change Data Capture (CDC) allows enterprise databases to stream modifications in real-time. Instead of executing massive, nightly batch jobs to update a Vector Database, CDC instantly detects when a record is updated and pushes that specific change to the embedding pipeline, keeping the AI's context window perfectly synchronized with live operations.
