Ajay Yadava commented on FALCON-2030:
-------------------------------------

Thanks [~me.venkatr]!

Metadatas do change but it is not necessary to maintain their versions as it is 
not practically useful to maintain old versions. Only the latest and one source 
of truth is required and maintained.

Also, as you said that users might use a version number, a unique id like epoch 
etc., or just use the english version like /mydata-june. How will we enforce 
the pattern in those cases?

> Enforce time partition pattern in the data location path in feed definition
