Lazy Database Replication with Snapshot Isolation

Summary: Introduces strong session snapshot isolation for lazy replicated databases to prevent transaction inversions via concurrency controls. We provide an efficient implementation and show, via performance experiments, the overheads of lazy replication under this criterion. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
