Understanding & Using Time Travel
Snowflake Time Travel enables accessing historical data (i.e. data that has been changed or deleted) at any point within a defined period. It serves as a powerful tool for performing the following tasks:
- Restoring data-related objects (tables, schemas, and databases) that might have been accidentally or intentionally deleted.
- Duplicating and backing up data from key points in the past.
- Analyzing data usage/manipulation over specified periods of time.
