Abstract
A system for database reversion is described. The system comprises: a database engine configured to host an active database; a log engine configured to generate transaction logs for transactions affecting the active database; a backup engine configured to create a backup data structure to allow for database reversion; and a memory buffer separate from the active database. A page in the active database has an associated page timestamp indicating a most recent update of the page in the active database. The database engine is configured to flush an updated copy of a page in the memory buffer to the active database. The backup engine is configured to, prior to the flush, store an image of the page in the active database to the backup data structure when the page in the active database is older than the time value related to the creation time of the backup data structure.
