Concurrency control and recovery in OLTP systems: high scalability and availability - volume 9

Transaction processing is fundamental for many modern applications.

These applications require the backend transaction processing engines to be available at all times as well as provide a massive horizontal scale for intensive transaction requests.Concurrency Control and Recovery features recent progress in research in online transaction processing.

The book also showcases the authors' research on a highly scalable OLTP system.

Its contents include the designs of an efficient multiple version storage engine, a scalable range optimistic concurrency control, high-performance Paxos-based log replication, global snapshot isolation, and fast follower recovery.This book is written for professionals, researchers, and graduate students specialising in database systems and its related fields.
