In-Network Support for Transaction Triaging

Summary: In-network Transaction Triaging manipulates in-flight transaction streams to DB servers to speed execution without altering concurrency control. Implemented on programmable NICs and portable across systems; achieves 2–8× UDP/TCP throughput and 1.1–1.9× RDMA with modest latency on an in-memory DB. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
