Abstract

Several DBMS vendors have implemented the ANSI standard SQL isolation levels for transaction processing. This has created a gap between database practice and textbook accounts of transaction processing which simply equate isolation with serializability.

We extend the notion of conflict to cover lower isolation levels and we present improved characterisations of classes of schedules achieving these levels.

Extending ACID semantics to the file system

An organization's data is often its most valuable asset, but today's file systems provide few facilities to ensure its safety. Databases, on the other hand, have long provided transactions. Transactions are useful because they provide atomicity, ...

Epoxy: ACID Transactions across Diverse Data Stores

Developers are increasingly building applications that incorporate multiple data stores, for example to manage heterogeneous data. Often, these require transactional safety for operations across stores, but few systems support such guarantees. To solve ...
