An Analysis of Three Transaction Processing Architectures

Summary: Simulation-based evaluation of multiprocessor transaction processing architectures—Shared Everything, Shared Nothing, and Shared Disks. Examines four Shared Disks variants to minimize lock-request messaging and analyzes how intra-query parallelism shapes relative performance. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
