What mechanism does Oracle use behind Synchronous change data capture (CDC)?
I am interested in implementing Synchronous change data capture (CDC) and have managed to get it to work as proof of concept but have no idea what mechanism Oracle uses to capture DML events. Can anyone help because it will help me to assess the risk of using CDC instead of writing bespoke triggers.
In the documentation
http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14223/cdc.htm
It claims 'Triggers on the source database allow change data to be captured immediately' however I can see no such triggers on my source database - but CDC is working. Is there some sort of background or internal oracle process which detects when DML is issued and then populates the change tables???
