Abstract
A system includes one or more processors and data storage containing instructions executable by the one or more processors to perform operations. The operations include detecting a first executed transaction causing a first modification to table data stored in a table. The table data is associated with a corresponding metadata file with metadata information of the table. A new metadata file is generated responsive to the first executed transaction. The new metadata file includes the metadata information and additional metadata associated with the first modification. A second executed transaction causing a second modification to the table data is detected. The table data is updated with a change tracking column. The change tracking column includes lineage of executed transactions on the table data. The lineage indicates at least the first transaction and the second transaction.
