Title:Extending Polaris to Support Transactions
View PDFAbstract:In Polaris, we introduced a cloud-native distributed query processor to perform analytics at scale. In this paper, we extend the underlying Polaris distributed computation framework, which can be thought of as a read-only transaction engine, to execute general transactions (including updates, deletes, inserts and bulk loads, in addition to queries) for Tier 1 warehousing workloads in a highly performant and predictable manner. We take advantage of the immutability of data files in log-structured data stores and build on SQL Server transaction management to deliver full transactional support with Snapshot Isolation semantics, including multi-table and multi-statement transactions. With the enhancements described in this paper, Polaris supports both query processing and transactions for T-SQL in Microsoft Fabric.
