Serializable Isolation for Snapshot Databases
Summary: Modifies the concurrency control to auto-detect and prevent snapshot isolation anomalies at runtime, delivering serializable isolation for arbitrary apps. Preserves non-blocking reads/writes and shows near-SI throughput in implementation benchmarks. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
