Stream Producer uses change data capture (CDC) technology to capture inserts, updates, and deletes on selected tables. The captured changes are formatted as messages and sent to a Kafka topic, enabling real-time data synchronization with external applications. [Stream Producer schemas](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=schema-management&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) : Stream Producer supports the Avro serialization format for message payloads. When using an Avro format, Stream Producer uses the selected table's auto-generated schema to convert CDC payloads to Avro before sending them to Kafka. [OAUTHBEARER authentication for Stream Connect message replication](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=hla-data-input-kafka-credentials&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) : Authenticate using OAUTHBEARER as part of the SASL credential framework for Stream Connect message replication. OAUTHBEARER authentication lets Stream Connect administrators meet customer requirements, improve security, and align with existing OAuth capabilities on the platform, enabling seamless integration with Kafka environments that require advanced authentication. [Stream Connect Dashboard](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=stream-connect-dashboard&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) : Use the Stream Connect Dashboard to view data for Stream Producers, including the number of messages and bytes produced, the rate of production, and the number of messages still pending. Monitor and analyze Stream Producer performance with the Stream Producer CDC Statistics section on each Stream Producer's page. The Stream Connect Dashboard is available from the ServiceNow Store. | [ ] ## Changes Between your current release family and Brazil, some changes were made to existing Stream Connect features. {#dfrn3-streamconnect-summary__entry__14} | Release | Release notes | |-|-| | Australia | No updates for this release. | | Brazil | No updates for this release. | [ ] ## Removed Between your current release family and Brazil, some Stream Connect features or functionality were removed. {#dfrn3-streamconnect-summary__entry__20} | Release | Release notes | |-|-| | Australia | No updates for this release. | | Brazil | No updates for this release. | [ ] ## Deprecations Between your current release family and Brazil, some Stream Connect features or functionality were deprecated. {#dfrn3-streamconnect-summary__entry__26} | Release | Release notes | |-|-| | Australia | No updates for this release. | | Brazil | No updates for this release. | [ ] ## Activation information Review information on how to activate Stream Connect. {#dfrn3-streamconnect-summary__entry__32} | Release | Release notes | |-|-| | Australia | No updates for this release. | | Brazil | Activation information : Stream Connect requires a Workflow Data Fabric subscription package.
