Low-Latency Multi-Datacenter Databases using Replicated Commit

Summary: Replicates the commit instead of the log for multi-datacenter ACID data, via repeated two-phase commits and Paxos cross-DC consensus. Locally optimized commit, reducing cross-DC trips and tightly integrating atomicity/isolation with replication; extensive experiments compare to log-based replication.
