Abstract

See full text

An embodiment provides a system and method for transaction commitment and replication. The method includes receiving a minitransaction from a client node at one or more memory nodes, wherein each memory node includes a number of replicas. The minitransaction is a type of transaction which atomically executes any combination of reading, comparing, and writing to any of a number of memory locations. The method also includes determining, for a leader of the replicas within a memory node, whether the leader is able to commit the minitransaction and stabilizing state changes of the minitransaction within a transaction log using a consensus procedure to update the replicas. The method further includes committing the minitransaction if, at each memory node, a quorum of the replicas is able to stabilize the minitransaction, or aborting the minitransaction otherwise.
