Definition
The delta process
is a feature of the extractor and specifies how data is to be transferred. As
a DataSource attribute, it specifies how the DataSource data is passed on to
the data target. From this you can derive, for example, for which data a
DataSource is suited, and how the update and serialization are to be carried
out.

to the delta process, the system decides whether it is necessary to serialize
by request or by data packet.
