title: Tracking or Notifying DB Changes - Inserts and Updates mostly
body: <p>How do I track or get notified whenever a record is inserted or updated in a DB? I would like to notify an external application of the changes in near real time whenever such changes in DB occur. Are there DBMS independent and application programming language independent ways of doing this? If not, then is it possible with MS Access and MS SQL Server in particular? I'm looking to avoid continuous polling of DB of course.</p>
