Instant Recovery for Main-Memory Databases

Summary: Main contribution: a main-memory DB architecture that targets byte-addressable Storage Class Memory (SCM) and removes traditional log-based recovery by using persistent in-place data structures, eliminating the need for transaction rollbacks. Prototype SOFORT achieves instant recovery and exposes a tunable trade-off between query runtime and recovery time. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
