It plays a crucial role in data synchronization and integration, enabling incremental data synchronization. This document provides a detailed overview of the various CDC methods, helping you understand their working principles, advantages, and disadvantages, and offering specific usage instructions.

📄️ Data Security

As we embrace cloud services, the safety of our data has become a top priority. This concern not only relates to the regulatory compliance of enterprise data services, but more crucially, to the protection of vital business data. Recognizing this, TapData was designed with security at its core. From architectural design, technical implementation, and operational procedures, strict safeguards have been put in place, ensuring a safe and secure user experience.
