Real-Time Data Sync with Tessell Change Data Capture (CDC) and Microsoft Fabric
- Tessell CDC continuously monitors MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQL Server, and Oracle transaction logs to capture inserts, updates, and deletes in near real time with minimal database performance impact.
- Captured changes flow through a Kafka based stream processing layer that propagates only modified data incrementally, reducing redundancy before delivery to target systems.
- Data lands in Amazon S3, Azure Fabric Data Lake, Google Cloud Storage, Snowflake, or Databricks with configurable sync modes including async, near real time, and scheduled refresh.
- The Microsoft Fabric integration enables businesses to set up CDC pipelines in a few clicks, keeping Fabric Lakehouse environments continuously refreshed for analytics and AI model training.
- Choose Tessell CDC over batch ETL when organizations need real time analytics, continuously updated development environments, and automated schema adaptation without manual data extraction overhead.
In today’s fast-paced business environment,real-time decisionsare the difference between leading the market and playing catch-up. Yet many organizations still rely on outdated batch processes, leaving teams to work with stale or incomplete data.
At Tessell, we’ve reimagined how data moves across systems with ourChange Data Capture (CDC) platform— and through our collaboration withMicrosoft Fabric, we’re making it easier than ever for businesses to tap intofresh, trustworthy datafor current analytics and training AI models.
Why This Matters
Think about your business: every transaction, customer interaction, or operational update creates new data. But if that data takes hours (or days) to show up in your analytics tools, you risk missed opportunities and slower response times.
With Tessell CDC, businesses can:
See changes as they happen– Data is captured in near real time from core systems.
Keep analytics always up to date– Whether it’s financial dashboards or customer insights, the latest data is always available.
Reduce costs and complexity– No more heavy, redundant data extracts or manual interventions.
This means your teams can make better decisions withconfidence speed.
Powering Growth with Microsoft Fabric
Our close collaboration with theMicrosoft Fabric teamtakes this to the next level. Fabric is already transforming how organizations manage and analyze data, and Tessell makes it effortless tobring your most important data directly into Fabric’s Lakehouse environment.
Together, we enable businesses to:
Set up pipelines in just a few clicks– No complex coding or lengthy projects.
Choose the right sync strategy– From real-time updates to scheduled refreshes, you stay in control.
Accelerate innovation– Development and test environments in Fabric stay continuously refreshed, so teams can experiment without waiting on IT.
Ensure security and compliance– With enterprise-grade encryption and access controls built in.

“Our migration of 500+ critical Oracle databases to Azure with Tessell was a major milestone in our transformation journey. Tessell’s managed service has already reduced complexity and costs, and we’re excited about what’s next. The new Data Ecosystem capabilities and Microsoft Fabric integration open up powerful possibilities for unifying operational and analytical data, and we look forward to exploring how they can help us unlock even greater value from our data in the future.” -
End-to-End Flow of Tessell’s Data Ecosystem
Modern enterprises demandreal-time access to dataacross diverse platforms. Tessell’s Change Data Capture (CDC) powered Data Ecosystem enables organizations to move data seamlessly from source databases into cloud-native data lakes and warehouses - without heavy batch jobs or manual interventions.
Data Capture at the Source
Tessell CDC continuously monitors relational databases such asMySQL, PostgreSQL, SQL Server, and Oracle. Instead of querying entire datasets, it leveragesdatabase transaction logsto capture inserts, updates, and deletes with minimal performance impact.
Change Processing & Stream Handling
Captured events are processed in real-time through a scalable stream processing layer (Kafka). This ensuresincremental loading—only the modified data is propagated—reducing redundancy and improving efficiency.
Schema & Data Transformation
As schemas evolve, Tessell dynamically adapts. Data is validated, errors are auto-corrected via retry mechanisms, and transformations are applied to make dataanalytics-readybefore delivery.
Secure Data Movement
All captured data is encrypted bothin transit and at rest. Role-based access control (RBAC), audit logging, and masking ensure compliance and governance throughout the pipeline.
Loading into Target Systems
Data flows into popularcloud data lakes(Amazon S3, Azure Fabric Data Lake, Google Cloud Storage) or directly intowarehousessuch as Snowflake or Databricks. Users can configuresync modes—async, near real-time, or scheduled—based on business needs.
Monitoring & Control
A unified Tessell console providesCDC setup, monitoring, and control. Users can:
Test data syncs
Choose sync granularity (entire DB, schema, or table-level)
View status dashboards and alerts
Pause/resume or delete CDC pipelines when required
