Take a legacy application and improve its search functionality with only a few changes to the application itself. Using a technique called change data capture (CDC) we will show how to listen for changes in a database and react to these changes - write to an Elasticsearch index. This is mostly done independently of the original application and its database, reducing the impact it has on the original system.
