Nice i can see the need for this.

I see you have an on-prem version, but i am still not convinced why you need to store it? Can it not just be stored in an extra table at the client's side?

Yes, you’re correct on that! Sorry for the lack of clarity on the docs. The snapshots would be stored in a client side table in these cases. These snapshot tables/collections can either be stored in your own PG or MongoDB.
