## Setup guide

Follow our [step-by-step Akamai setup guide](/docs/connectors/applications/akamai/setup-guide.md) to connect Akamai with your destination using Fivetran connectors.

## Sync overview

To capture new records, we [incrementally sync](/docs/getting-started/glossary.md#incrementalsync) the `ENTITY` table and its child tables.

To capture updates and deletes, we [re-import](/docs/getting-started/glossary.md#reimport) `ENTITY` table and its child tables once a month.
