Concurrency control algorithms are key determinants of the performance of in-memory databases. Existing algorithms are designed to work well for certain workloads. For example, optimistic concurrency control (OCC) is better than two-phase-locking (2PL) under low contention, while the converse is true under high contention. To adapt to different workloads, prior works mix or switch between a few known algorithms using manual insights or simple heuristics. We propose a learning-based framework that instead explicitly optimizes concurrency control via offline training to maximize performance. Instead of choosing among a small number of known algorithms, our approach searches in a policy space of fine-grained actions, resulting in novel algorithms that can outperform existing algorithms by specializing to a given workload. We build Polyjuice based on our learning framework and evaluate it against several existing algorithms. Under different configurations of TPC-C and TPC-E, Polyjuice can achieve throughput numbers higher than the best of existing algorithms by 15% to 56%.

Multi-versioned database systems have the potential to significantly increase the amount of concurrency in transaction processing because they can avoid read-write conflicts. Unfortunately, the increase in concurrency usually comes at the cost of tra
nsaction serializability. If a database user requests full serializability, modern multi-versioned systems significantly constrain read-write concurrency among conflicting transactions and employ expensive synchronization patterns in their design. In main-memory multi-core settings, these additional constraints are so burdensome that multi-versioned systems are often significantly outperformed by single-version systems. We propose Bohm, a new concurrency control protocol for main-memory multi-versioned database systems. Bohm guarantees serializable execution while ensuring that reads never block writes. In addition, Bohm does not require reads to perform any book-keeping whatsoever, thereby avoiding the overhead of tracking reads via contended writes to shared memory. This leads to excellent scalability and performance in multi-core settings. Bohm has all the above characteristics without performing validation based concurrency control. Instead, it is pessimistic, and is therefore not prone to excessive aborts in the presence of contention. An experimental evaluation shows that Bohm performs well in both high contention and low contention settings, and is able to dramatically outperform state-of-the-art multi-versioned systems despite maintaining the full set of serializability guarantees.
Although the emergence of the programmable smart contract makes blockchain systems easily embrace a wider range of industrial areas, how to execute smart contracts efficiently becomes a big challenge nowadays. Due to the existence of Byzantine nodes,
the mechanism of executing smart contracts is quite different from that in database systems, so that existing successful concurrency control protocols in database systems cannot be employed directly. Moreover, even though smart contract execution follows a two-phase style, i.e, the miner node executes a batch of smart contracts in the first phase and the validators replay them in the second phase, existing parallel solutions only focus on the optimization in the first phase, but not including the second phase. In this paper, we propose a novel efficient concurrency control scheme which is the first one to do optimization in both phases. Specifically, (i) in the first phase, we give a variant of OCC (Optimistic Concurrency Control) protocol based on {em batching} feature to improve the concurrent execution efficiency for the miner and produce a schedule log with high parallelism for validators. Also, a graph partition algorithm is devised to divide the original schedule log into small pieces and further reduce the communication cost; and (ii) in the second phase, we give a deterministic OCC protocol to replay all smart contracts efficiently on multi-core validators where all cores can replay smart contracts independently. Theoretical analysis and extensive experimental results illustrate that the proposed scheme outperforms state-of-art solutions significantly.
Current main memory database system architectures are still challenged by high contention workloads and this challenge will continue to grow as the number of cores in processors continues to increase. These systems schedule transactions randomly acro
ss cores to maximize concurrency and to produce a uniform load across cores. Scheduling never considers potential conflicts. Performance could be improved if scheduling balanced between concurrency to maximize throughput and scheduling transactions linearly to avoid conflicts. In this paper, we present the design of several intelligent transaction scheduling algorithms that consider both potential transaction conflicts and concurrency. To incorporate reasoning about transaction conflicts, we develop a supervised machine learning model that estimates the probability of conflict. This model is incorporated into several scheduling algorithms. In addition, we integrate an unsupervised machine learning algorithm into an intelligent scheduling algorithm. We then empirically measure the performance impact of different scheduling algorithms on OLTP and social networking workloads. Our results show that, with appropriate settings, intelligent scheduling can increase throughput by 54% and reduce abort rate by 80% on a 20-core machine, relative to random scheduling. In summary, the paper provides preliminary evidence that intelligent scheduling significantly improves DBMS performance.
Research in transaction processing has made significant progress in improving the performance of multi-core in-memory transactional systems. However, the focus has mainly been on low-contention workloads. Modern transactional systems perform poorly o
n workloads with transactions accessing a few highly contended data items. We observe that most transactional workloads, including those with high contention, can be divided into clusters of data conflict-free transactions and a small set of residuals. In this paper, we introduce a new concurrency control protocol called Strife that leverages the above observation. Strife executes transactions in batches, where each batch is partitioned into clusters of conflict-free transactions and a small set of residual transactions. The conflict-free clusters are executed in parallel without any concurrency control, followed by executing the residual cluster either serially or with concurrency control. We present a low-overhead algorithm that partitions a batch of transactions into clusters that do not have cross-cluster conflicts and a small residual cluster. We evaluate Strife against the optimistic concurrency control protocol and several variants of two-phase locking, where the latter is known to perform better than other concurrency protocols under high contention, and show that Strife can improve transactional throughput by up to 2x. We also perform an in-depth micro-benchmark analysis to empirically characterize the performance and quality of our clustering algorithm
Multicore CPUs and large memories are increasingly becoming the norm in modern computer systems. However, current database management systems (DBMSs) are generally ineffective in exploiting the parallelism of such systems. In particular, contention c
an lead to a dramatic fall in performance. In this paper, we propose a new concurrency control protocol called DGCC (Dependency Graph based Concurrency Control) that separates concurrency control from execution. DGCC builds dependency graphs for batched transactions before executing them. Using these graphs, contentions within the same batch of transactions are resolved before execution. As a result, the execution of the transactions does not need to deal with contention while maintaining full equivalence to that of serialized execution. This better exploits multicore hardware and achieves higher level of parallelism. To facilitate DGCC, we have also proposed a system architecture that does not have certain centralized control components yielding better scalability, as well as supports a more efficient recovery mechanism. Our extensive experimental study shows that DGCC achieves up to four times higher throughput compared to that of state-of-the-art concurrency control protocols for high contention workloads.
