Great article. However, I personally dislike the term "CDC".
Context: I work for an ETL company, and to customers, "CDC" can mean anything from Postgres WAL tracking to replication that tracks changes based on a field value change. So it's always a first step to talk them down and ask what they actually mean by "CDC".
It's a marketing term, basically.
Additionally "CDC" is what MSSQL refers to as their form of what is generically a Transaction Log.
