# Using ARC CDC solutions in Qlik Replicate

This section describes how to use an ARC (Attunity Replicate Connect) CDC Solution as a Qlik Replicate endpoint.

Information note

* For better performance, it is strongly recommended that Replicate runs on Windows when working with an ARC-based source.

* For all ARC sources, it is strongly recommended to install the ARC Agent in the same data center as the Replicate server.
