Performance and Resource Modeling in Highly-Concurrent OLTP Workloads

Summary: DBSeer: a statistical model for highly concurrent OLTP. Trained on small operation logs, it predicts per-transaction resource use, bottlenecks, and throughput across load levels; validated on MySQL/Linux with TPC-C and Wikipedia data, achieving a few-percent accuracy.
