Since these legacy systems are often difficult, and costly, to change, we need a mechanism that can integrate elements of the replacement while minimizing the impact to the legacy system.

If you built your data lake in the last 5-7 years, you probably are ingesting data into the data lake using many batch jobs that ingest and update data in the data lake. There is nothing wrong with what you did, but data technology has continued to move forward and in my opinion, the time has come to change your data lake ingestion strategy to reduce the number of high-latency batch jobs and move toward primarily using real-time change data capture (CDC).
