Ajay Yadava commented on FALCON-1406:
-------------------------------------

Can you please also document what all steps are taken as part of an update with 
a backward effective time? Something on the lines of what other features have 
you checked that they won't be impacted and what steps have you taken for those 
which are impacted? e.g. what all changes are carried out in graph / relational 
db

It will be nice to update the design doc with all these details as well.

> Effective time with entity updates needs to be provided even with past time 
> too. There was effective time capability provided in the past which gives the 
> functionality to set an effective time for an entity with only current or 
> future time(now + delay), which could not solve all the issues. 
> Following are few scenarios which would require effective time to be 
> available with time back in past.
> a) New code being deployed for an incompatible input data set which would 
> leave instances with old code and new data.
> b) Bad code being pushed for which, the entity should be able to go back in 
> time to replay(rerun) with new code.
> c) Orchestration level changes(good/bad) would need functionality to go back 
> in time to start with.
> For reference: Linking all the Jiras that have been worked upon around 
> effective time .
