Unless one of the fine people here knows the official answer, that sounds like something for your official support provider. All the documentation for the release only seems to note is "The IBM InfoSphere Change Data Capture (CDC) stage is deprecated. The stage will be removed after the Version 11.7 release." with no hint of what you can replace it with that I've seen. Yet.

Just a guess: most likely it will be or has been replaced by Kafka. In fact, if you look in the DataStage Designer 11.7 on the palette under the Real Time category, there is a Kafka Connector stage where the CDC Transaction stage used to be.
Furthermore, the CDC stage is still there in 11.7 if you look under Repository, Stage Types, Parallel, Real Time folder. It has cleverly been renamed to CDC_Transaction_has_been_DEPRECATED and assigned an all-gray icon. It sounds like it will no longer be included after version 11.7.
You need to ask IBM what the migration path is and where the documentation is. You might try talking with your IBM InfoSphere sales rep and see what they have to say about it. Please let us know what you find out.

The DataStage CDC stage has been discontinued and while it is in the DataStage 11.7 release it will be removed from future DataStage releases. I believe this is due to problems they had with performance and data consistency. The recommendation is that you land the data to file or database first and then read it with DataStage, so you can continue to use the CDD license as long as the data is processed by DataStage after it is staged.

Sorry to dig this back up but when I search for Change Data Capture stage all I get are documents referring to the Change Capture stage, which I am really hoping is different from the Change Data Capture (CDC) stage referenced in the release notes. From just poking around I believe the Change Data Capture stage referenced in the notes is the CDC Transaction stage in the Real Time folder is that correct?
