Tom Kyte is working on a series of articles about the new features in Oracle 12c/18c (cloud). One of the most exciting? Timeline-based queries. Tom says:
Oracle 9i exposed flashback query to developers for the first time. The ability to flashback query dates back to version 4 however (it just wasn't exposed). Every time you run a query in Oracle it is in fact a flashback query - it is what multi-versioning is all about.
