Setup SQLServer Database
----------------
A SQL Server administrator must enable change data capture on the source tables that you want to capture. The database must already be enabled for CDC. To enable CDC on a table, a SQL Server administrator runs the stored procedure ```sys.sp_cdc_enable_table``` for the table.

procedure ```sys.sp_cdc_enable_table``` for the table.

**Prerequisites:**

* CDC is enabled on the SQL Server database.
* The SQL Server Agent is running.
* You are a member of the db_owner fixed database role for the database.

**Procedure:**

* Connect to the SQL Server database by database management studio.
* Run the following SQL statement to enable CDC on the table.

The query returns configuration information for each table in the database that is enabled for CDC and that contains change data that the caller is authorized to access. If the result is empty, verify that the user has privileges to access both the capture instance and the CDC tables.

### Can't perform checkpoint during scanning snapshot of tables
During scanning snapshot of database tables, since there is no recoverable position, we can't perform checkpoints. In order to not perform checkpoints, SqlServer CDC source will keep the checkpoint waiting to timeout. The timeout checkpoint will be recognized as failed checkpoint, by default, this will trigger a failover for the Flink job. So if the database table is large, it is recommended to add following Flink configurations to avoid failover because of the timeout checkpoints:

Features

### Exactly-Once Processing

The SQLServer CDC connector is a Flink Source connector which will read database snapshot first and then continues to read change events with **exactly-once processing** even failures happen. Please read [How the connector works](https://debezium.io/documentation/reference/1.6/connectors/sqlserver.html#how-the-sqlserver-connector-works).

read [How the connector works](https://debezium.io/documentation/reference/1.6/connectors/sqlserver.html#how-the-sqlserver-connector-works)
.

### Startup Reading Position

The config option `scan.startup.mode` specifies the startup mode for SQLServer CDC consumer. The valid enumerations are:

- `initial` (default): Takes a snapshot of structure and data of captured tables; useful if topics should be populated with a complete representation of the data from the captured tables.
- `initial-only`: Takes a snapshot of structure and data like initial but instead does not transition into streaming changes once the snapshot has completed.
- `latest-offset`: Takes a snapshot of the structure of captured tables only; useful if only changes happening from now onwards should be propagated to topics.
- `initial` (default): Takes a snapshot of structure and data of captured tables; useful if topics should be populated
with a complete representation of the data from the captured tables.
- `initial-only`: Takes a snapshot of structure and data like initial but instead does not transition into streaming
changes once the snapshot has completed.
- `latest-offset`: Takes a snapshot of the structure of captured tables only; useful if only changes happening from now
onwards should be propagated to topics.

_Note: the mechanism of `scan.startup.mode` option relying on Debezium's `snapshot.mode` configuration. So please do not use them together. If you specific both `scan.startup.mode` and `debezium.snapshot.mode` options in the table DDL, it may make `scan.startup.mode` doesn't work._
