Thanks for the feedback! I totally agree with you that using a streaming approach seems like an overkill. Actually making the pipeline truly real-time is part of our future work for Cassandra CDC (This is mentioned in Part 2 of this blogpost, which is expected to be published next week). In Cassandra 4.0, the CDC feature is improved to allow real-time parsing of commit logs. We are running 3.X in production, however we plan to add 4.0 support in the future.
