I’m curious whether there is any database that handles this scenario correctly…or even whether there is a correct behavior for a situation where the system clock is rewound.
Good question. I used to test an auction app I maintained on SqlServer but I never pushed it more than a few hours into the future. To be clear: my experience with MongoDb was a one off local issue. No idea if there are server protections etc.
