Oracle Connectivity - CDC

psingh13 — Mon, 13 Jul 2026 05:01:00 GMT

Hi Team,

Has Databricks released CDC(Change data Capture) for Oracle Ingestion(public preview or GA)?

I was able to see this option in free edition but want to make sure.Please check attached screenshot.

Also, I understand that there are steps mentioned for SQL server CDC ingestion ( steps to be executed on source SQL server), but I don’t see any steps mentioned for Oracle anywhere.

Are there any steps applicable for the same?

Answer: Not yet.

As of now, Oracle is not listed as a supported CDC (Change Data Capture) database connector in Lakeflow Connect managed CDC connectors.

Databricks has recently introduced Query-Based Connectors for databases including Oracle. These connectors are different from CDC:

They query the source database on a schedule.
They use a cursor/watermark column (for example, LAST_UPDATED_DATE).
They do not read Oracle redo logs or perform transaction-log-based CDC.
They do not require an ingestion gateway or CDC configuration on the source database.
