Marlin: Efficient Coordination for Autoscaling Cloud DBMS

Summary: Embeds coordination in cloud-native DBMS, removing external coordination for storage-disaggregated autoscaling. MarlinCommit enables coordination with transactional guarantees across nodes and app state, achieving 4.4x cost and 4.9x faster reconfiguration. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
