> HBase support scanning over snapshots, with a SnapshotScanner that accesses the region directly in HDFS. We should make sure that Phoenix can support that.
> Not sure how we'd want to decide when to run a query over a snapshot. Some ideas:
> - if there's an SCN set (i.e. the query is running at a point in time in the past)
> - if the memstore is empty
> - if the query is being run at a timestamp earlier than any memstore data
> - as a config option on the table
> - as a query hint
> - based on some kind of optimizer rule (i.e. based on estimated # of bytes that will be scanned)
> Phoenix typically runs a query at the timestamp at which it was compiled. Any data committed after this time should not be seen while a query is running.
