Automatic change data feed (Auto CDF)
GALast seen at this status: 2026-09-01·59d ago
Computes row-level changes at query time from row tracking, so change data feed no longer has to be enabled on each Delta Lake or Apache Iceberg v3 table. Removing the write-time overhead makes MERGE and UPDATE about 15% faster on tables queried for changes, and it requires Databricks Runtime 19 or above with row tracking enabled. It is rolling out to workspaces and is due in all supported regions by the end of October 2026.
