    Abstract: Techniques are described for enabling a relational database service of a cloud provider network to provide online restore or “backtrack” capabilities that are unlimited in terms of an amount of time in the past to which a database can be restored. Database systems typically provide restoration capabilities that allow users to undo or revert to a prior state of the database. Restoring a database to a prior state can be useful in many different scenarios. For example, a user might restore a database to remove or rollback errors introduced into a database as a result of inadvertent changes to data or to a schema of the data stored in the database. As another example, database administrators or other users can use restore operations as part of testing modifications to a database schema when developing applications or other tools that use the database.
