First-Class CDC Support in Spark 4.2

Apache Spark 4.2 makes Change Data Capture (CDC) a first-class engine feature. A unified CHANGES API now handles batch and streaming across SQL and DataFrames for any Data Source V2 connector—eliminating per-format dialects.

Building on this, Delta Lake delivers read-time CDC by default, requiring zero stored change files. Join us for a deep dive and live demo.
