Locking Key Ranges with Unbundled Transaction Services
Summary: Separates generic transaction services from data components, requiring logical range locking without exposing DC internals. Introduces partition resources as covering locks, achieving higher concurrency and lower overhead than table-level locking. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
