Microsoft SQL Server CDC connections

Microsoft SQL Server CDC connections

You must create a Microsoft SQL Server CDC connection to connect to a stream of change records that PowerExchange captured from the SQL Server distribution database for one or more source tables.
The PWX CDC Reader that is on the system where the Secure Agent runs requires the connection information to retrieve SQL Server change records from PowerExchange.
You can create a SQL Server CDC connection in Administrator or Data Integration, provided that your assigned user role allows this action. Use one of the following methods:
  • In Administrator, click
    Connections
     on the navigation bar. On the
    Connections
     page, click
    New Connection
     and then enter connection details and properties for a connection that has the type of
    SQL Server CDC
    .
  • In Data Integration, when you create a mapping, click
    Source
     on the mapping canvas and then click
    Source
     in the
    Properties: Source
     panel. To create a connection, click
    New Connection
     and define a connection that has the type of
    SQL Server CDC
    . Alternatively, if you previously defined a SQL Server CDC connection, select it from the
    Connection
     list.
When you configure a connection, you must specify a runtime environment for the connection. The runtime environment must contain a Secure Agent with the status "Up and Running."
After you create a SQL Server CDC connection, it becomes available for use within the organization and can be used in multiple mappings.
