Business value
The Channel Data Exchange (CDX) component synchronizes data between Commerce Channel Databases (co-located cloud channel, Commerce Cloud Scale Unit, Commerce Store Scale Unit, and Modern point of sale (MPOS) with offline support).
A number of performance and reliability updates have been implemented that solve issues regarding data unavailability, slowness on other components, or impact on database data and log sizes. It is a constant focus to maximize availability, reliability, and efficiency in our data synchronization framework (CDX).
Feature details
This feature will contain several independent improvements in the following areas:
- Improve data package generation in Commerce headquarters.
- Improve data package when applying to a channel database.
- Reduce the number of required full synchronizations and, when unavoidable, minimize the performance impact.
- Multiple data optimizations, including master data stripping at the channel level, updating DB statistics, and indexing during synchronization.
