# Semi Structured Transformer

The Transformers are scalable independent processors which use your model designs to make graph data. They can connect and ingest from virtually anything as a data source, where the Semi Structured Transformer handles:

* CSV
* JSON&#x20;
* XML

Change Data Capture (CDC) is supported by the Semi Structured Transformers via an internal integration with Debezium. This allows your graphs to be always up to date and in sync with any changes made in the source data, for example in most SQL databases, Cassandra, or MongoDB.

The Semi Structured Transformer can also perform any simple or complex data transformations via our plugin ‘Functions’ architecture. There is a vast library of built in functions, with the ability to also write and load in your own for any specific requirements that may not be covered.
