-   **[Stream Producer](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=stream-producer&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US)**

Automatically stream changes from ServiceNow tables to Kafka topics with Stream Producer. 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=australia&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.

-   **[Spoke Generator license changes](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=spoke-builder&family=zurich&ft:locale=en-US)**

Starting with Zurich, the Spokes list page and Spoke details pages are a part of the ServiceNow Integration Hub Starter Pack. To create a spoke using OpenAPI or Postman collection specification or Now Assist, you need a ServiceNow Integration Hub Professional license in your prod and sub-prod environments.
