Hi @subhas_hati ,

Change data capture (CDC) is a data integration pattern that captures changes made to data in a source system, such as inserts, updates, and deletes. These changes, represented as a list, are commonly referred to as a CDC feed. You can process your data much faster if you operate on a CDC feed, instead of reading the entire source dataset. Transactional databases such as SQL Server, MySQL, and Oracle generate CDC feeds. Delta tables generate their own CDC feed, known as a change data feed (CDF).

If you want to find more details, please take a look at below articles:
