A Concurrency Model for Transaction Management
Summary: Two transaction models in InterBase, with a multi-generational record structure, enable stable reads without blocking concurrent updates to boost global throughput. Discusses the six classic problems: lost updates, dirty reads, cursor instability, non-reproducible reads, phantom records, and update side effects. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
