Gabor Kaszab commented on IMPALA-10153:
---------------------------------------
[~superdupershant]I just had a relevant conversation with [~laszlog] the other
day and apparently Impala is unable to directly query table metadata at the
moment that would make implementing "select * from table_name.history" a bit
difficult.
As a first step I'd add "SHOW TABLE HISTORY" and later come back to "select *
from table_name.history".

> Iceberg tables support snapshots/data versioning/time travel.
> It means we can query an older version of the table.
> Probably we'll need to extend Impala's SQL syntax to support such queries
> (Hive will also support such queries, so we should use the same syntax).
