Real-Time SQL Change Streaming: Azure's New CES Feature

Tired of waiting for batch jobs to sync your SQL data? Azure’s new Change Event Streaming (CES) feature delivers row-level data changes—inserts, updates, and deletes—directly to Azure Event Hubs as transactions commit, slashing latency to near real-time.

This game-changing capability means your downstream applications and analytics pipelines can react instantly to database changes without polling or complex ETL processes. SQL Managed Instance publishes changes as they happen, keeping your event-driven architecture lean and responsive.
