Change Event
Noun · Development
Definitions
An event emitted when a value, record, document, or state transition changes, allowing other parts of the system to react. Change events are common in UI components, data stores, file watchers, and CDC pipelines where incremental updates matter more than full polling.
In plain English: An event that signals something has changed.
Example: "The sync worker subscribed to change events from the source database so it could propagate updates without full-table rescans."
