Multi-Version Concurrency Control (MVCC)

Problem

Your senior engineer asks how modern databases allow readers to read data without locking out writers. You explain MVCC. Write a query that outputs definition with the value: "MVCC provides concurrent database access by keeping multiple copies of a record, allowing readers to read a snapshot of data without blocking writers."

Database Schema

This problem acts as a scratchpad. You will write your own DDL/DML or conceptual queries, so there is no predefined schema.
