Snapshots
Structs
- Iceberg tables keep track of branches and tags using snapshot references.
- A snapshot represents the state of a table at some time and is used to access the complete set of data files in the table.
- Summarises the changes in the snapshot.
Enums
- The operation field is used by some operations, like snapshot expiration, to skip processing certain snapshots.
- The snapshot expiration procedure removes snapshots from table metadata and applies the table’s retention policy.
