                 Key: HBASE-2376
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-2376
             Project: Hadoop HBase
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: client, regionserver
    Affects Versions: 0.20.3
            Reporter: Jonathan Gray


In order to support a particular kind of database "snapshot" feature which doesn't require copying data, we came up with the idea for a special SnapshotScanner that would present a view of your data at some point in the past.  The primary use case for this would be to be able to recover particular data/rows (but not all data, like a global rollback) should they have somehow been messed up (application fault, application bug, user error, etc.).
