Valid time

Valid time

Valid time (VT) is a concept used in temporal databases. It denotes the time period during which a database fact was, is, or will be valid in the modeled reality.

In a database table valid time is often represented by two extra table-columns "StartVT" and "EndVT". The time interval is closed at its lower bound and open at its upper bound.
