Decoupled Transactions: Low Tail Latency Online Transactions Atop Jittery Servers
Summary: Introduces “decoupled transactions” to deliver responsive snapshot isolation while avoiding cascading slowdowns, making progress without waiting for up to F slow/jittery servers. Examines decentralized correctness and practical cloud/AZ tradeoffs to suppress application-visible tail latency. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
