LeanStore: A High-Performance Storage Engine for NVMe SSDs
Summary: LeanStore: an OLTP storage engine that fully exploits multi‑NVMe SSDs and multi‑core CPUs, bridging disk- and memory‑centric DBMS designs. Paper details end‑to‑end architecture (caching, page replacement, I/O, indexing, sync, MVCC, logging, checkpoints, recovery) and low‑level NVMe implementation techniques for high performance.
