> At the moment, Hudi allows a client to configure the number of versions to keep for a particular dataset. Depending on the trade-off between storage cost vs number of versions required, one can use Hudi to keep multiple views of the dataset at different points in time. 
> Hudi uses this information to provide incremental consumption of what changed between 2 time units but does not have a simple way to be able to query a dataset as of a particular instant in time. There are multiple use-cases which benefit from such a feature, such as ML training/use-cases against the state of a feature store at a particular instant in time or for auditing system that require to see previous versions of data. 
> Hudi has most of the building blocks to be able to support such queries, we'd like to explore the feasibility & changes required to support it.
> [~semanticbeeng] something along the lines of what you brought up as well.
