Data-Oriented Transaction Execution

Summary: DORA decomposes transactions into data-bound actions and assigns actions to threads by accessed data, reducing contention on the centralized lock manager. ACID guarantees on a conventional storage engine; up to 4.8x throughput on multicore OLTP workloads. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
