Read OriginalThe article argues that transactions are not an inherent feature of storage systems but a protocol that can be implemented on top of systems like Redis, S3, or filesystems. It references techniques from Delta Lake, Orleans, and Epoxy, and discusses the flexibility of building custom transaction layers, even on existing transactional databases. It positions transactions as a crucial tool for ensuring consistency, atomicity, and isolation in distributed system design.
