Temporal databases are time enabled databases. This does have overlap to
Oracle flashback query but it is mostly used in data warehouse reference
where database has columns like effective_start_date, effective_end_date
so that snapshot as of certain point in time can be constructed.

Nope, not a Star Trek - Voyager reference though it sounds like one, but
something that our CEO was asked about by a customer. I have to confess
to never having heard the term. Other than FlashBack Query/Data Archive
has anyone any experience/understanding of this term as it relates to
Oracle?
