Improvement: Want to have more seamless mechanism for generating CDC updates

Open ronanstokes-db opened this issue 5 years ago • 2 comments

Currently you can generate simulated updates to an existing data set by either

  • sampling results from an existing dataset and updating fields
  • restricting the number of unique values for a datasets primary key or composite primary key fields so that you get naturally repeated rows

It would be useful to be able to specify a specific number of updates or range of updates per primary key

this will be a post initial release enhancement

additional updates:

  • Want to support random seed sequences so that when generating an update set or insert set for a CDC operation, you can reseed the data generation
  • want to support resetting of random seed as an option
  • want to support better distribution of random values across multiple UDF calls
