Everything is a Transaction: Unifying Logical Concurrency Control and Physical Data Structure Maintenance in Database Management Systems
Summary: DAF: register maintenance tasks as transactional deferred actions, ensuring MVCC safety and unifying logical concurrency control with physical data-structure maintenance. Integrated into NoisePage, DAF simplifies GC and index-cleaning, enables non-blocking schema changes and centralized metrics while matching hand-optimized performance.
