Introduction to Debezium

Debezium is an open-source distributed platform for Change Data Capture (CDC). It monitors your databases and captures row-level changes in real-time, streaming them to downstream systems like Apache Kafka.

This enables applications to respond instantly to database changes, supporting use cases such as event-driven architectures, data replication, auditing, and synchronization.

Debezium supports a variety of popular databases including:

• MySQL
• PostgreSQL
• MongoDB
• SQL Server
• Oracle

By providing reliable and low-latency data change events, Debezium helps organizations build reactive and scalable data pipelines.
