Pull change event producer

Regunath B edited this page Jul 23, 2014 · 9 revisions

The Pull based change event producer is an alternative to the log-mining approach for sourcing data changes. This producer too however remains true to design principles of Aesop described in Aesop Architecture.

The pull producer makes one big tradeoff though - that of being able to detect changes in near real-time. This constraint is due to the fact that this producer works on the approach of taking periodic snapshots of the entire source data and performing diffs between snapshots to detect changes. The granularity of detected changes is still at attribute-level for individual instances of a type (or) record.
