Abstract:
Technologies for performing garbage collection in database systems, such as multi-version concurrency control (MVCC) database systems, are described. For example, different garbage collection techniques can be used separately or in various combinations, including interval garbage collection, group garbage collection, table garbage collection, and combinations. For example, a particular type of combination, called hybrid garbage collection, uses technique from interval garbage collection and group garbage collection, or from interval, group, and table garbage collection.
Abstract:
Technologies are described for facilitating database system recovery in a distributed database environment having a master node and at least one slave node. The master node maintains an in-memory reference that includes transaction identifiers and their corresponding commit identifiers. When a slave node requests that a commit identifier be assigned to a transaction, the transaction and commit identifiers for the transaction are added to the in-memory reference. The commit identifier is sent by the master node to the slave node. The slave node writes a log entry to a commit log that includes the transaction identifier and the assigned commit identifier. If the database system is interrupted before the slave node writes the commit log entry, the slave node can request the commit identifier for the transaction from the master node, which retrieves the identifier from the in-memory reference.
Abstract:
A transaction management service layer monitors a plurality of read and write transactions being executed by the data engines by way of client libraries at each of a plurality of data engines. In addition, the transaction management server layer maintains and coordinates transaction timestamp and sequence numbers that are shared by the plurality of data engines. The transaction management service layer identifies and resolves conflicts among the plurality of transactions. The transaction management service layer is a separate and independent service that is isolated from other components of the plurality of data engines. Related apparatus, systems, techniques and articles are also described.
Abstract:
A plurality of database modification statements are received as part of a database transaction that implicates data stored within a database. Thereafter, lock requests are initiated that requesting the database to lock the implicated data. At least one database operation by at least one of the database modification statements is then executed prior to receiving responses from at least a portion of the lock requests. After confirming that prior lock requests made by the transaction are successfully processed, a commit to make changes to the corresponding implicated data permanent is initiated. The implicated data can then be caused to be unlocked after the commit completes. Related apparatus, systems, techniques and articles are also described.
Abstract:
Technologies are described for facilitating replay of requests for database operations. A plurality of requests for database operations are received. Each of the plurality of requests includes a type, an access unit identifier, and a chronological identifier. Execution dependencies are determined between the plurality of requests based on the type, access unit identifier, and chronological identifier of each of the plurality of requests. The execution dependencies are stored.

Abstract:
Technologies are described for performing replication within a database environment. Where a database transaction is replicated at multiple replica nodes, a replica node is selected as a coordinator replica node for the transaction. The other replica node or nodes are designated as follower replica nodes for the transaction. A follower replica node sends the coordinator replica node a precommit notification when the follower replica node has precommitted the transaction. The coordinator replica node sends the follower replica node a postcommit notification to commit the transaction when the transaction has been precommitted by all of the replica nodes to which the transaction is to be replicated.
Abstract:
Technologies are provided for reducing or eliminating transaction consistency anomalies that can occur during data replication, such as during database table replication. For example, commit values can be used to coordinate requests so that the requests are not performed on database tables with inconsistent data.
