Explore Data Modifications, Snapshots, and Time Travel with Apache Iceberg
One of the most powerful features of Apache Iceberg is its ability to track and manage change. In this step-by-step tutorial, you’ll explore how Iceberg records table modifications, maintains version history through snapshots, and enables time travel to query or restore previous table states.
You will create and modify Iceberg tables, observe how snapshots capture each change, and use snapshot identifiers to travel back in time or roll back unwanted updates.
By the end, you’ll understand how Iceberg brings full DML support and version control to data stored in immutable object storage.
What you’ll learn
- Modify and update Iceberg tables in Starburst Galaxy.
- Query Iceberg metadata to track changes with snapshots.
- Use time travel to explore or restore previous table versions.
