Low Overhead Concurrency Control for Partitioned Main Memory Databases
Summary: Partitioned main-memory OLTP with low-overhead concurrency control enabling progress on a partition during network stalls. Compare light-weight locking with speculative concurrency control; speculative CC avoids read/write tracking but may undo work, and can reach up to 2× throughput on a modified TPC-C when aborts or multi-round distributed transactions are rare.
