In a certain commit or snapshot, which records are inserted, which records are deleted, and which records are updated. Even for the updated records, both the old value before updated and the new value after updated are needed. + +To implement this capacity, we have to upgrade the write and read parts. Let hudi can figure out the changing data when read. And in some cases, writing the extra data to help querying the changing data if necessary. + +## Scenario Definition + +Here use a simple case to explain the CDC. + + + +Here we follow the debezium output format, there are four columns shown: +- op: the operation of this record; +- ts_ms: the timestamp; +- source: source information such as the name of database and table. **Maybe we don't need this column in Hudi**; +- before: the previous image before this operation; +- after: the current image after this operation; + +`op` column has three enum values: +- i: represent `insert`; when `op` is `i`, `before` is always null; +- u: represent `update`; when `op` is `u`, both `before` and `after` don't be null; +- d: represent `delete`; when `op` is `d`, `after` is always null; + +Notice: +Here the illustration ignores all the metadata columns in `before` and `after` columns like `_hoodie_commit_time`. + +## Goals + +1. Support row-level CDC records generation and persistence; +2. Support both MOR and COW tables; +3. Support all the write operations; +4. Support Spark DataFrame/SQL/Streaming Query; + +## Implementation +### CDC Architecture + + + +Notice: +Other operations like `Compact`, `Clean`, `Index` do not write/change any data. So we don't need to consider in CDC scenario. + +### Points to be upgraded + + + +### Config Definitions + +| | default | | +| --- | --- | --- | +| hoodie.table.cdf.enabled | false | `true` represents the table to be used for CDC queries and will write cdc data if needed. | Review Comment: In my design, the cdc query is treated as a whole separate query mode. So no change for incremental queries. Because i think the incremental query has been used in some cases, just keep it. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
