P-Store: An Elastic Database System with Predictive Provisioning
Summary: P-Store is the first elastic OLTP DBMS to use predictive provisioning. On B2W's workload, it reduces latency violations by 72% vs reactive systems and matches peak-demand static allocation with 50% fewer servers. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
