In database systems, isolation is one of the ACID ( Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation, Durability) transaction properties.

Database scalability has three basic dimensions: amount of data, volume of requests and size of requests. Requests come in many sizes: transactions generally affect small amounts of data, but may approach thousands per second; analytic queries are generally fewer, but may access more data. A related concept is elasticity, the ability of a ...
Multiversion concurrency control. Multiversion concurrency control ( MCC or MVCC ), is a non-locking concurrency control method commonly used by database management systems to provide concurrent access to the database and in programming languages to implement transactional memory. [1]
A column-oriented DBMS or columnar DBMS is a database management system (DBMS) that stores data tables by column rather than by row. Benefits include more efficient access to data when only querying a subset of columns (by eliminating the need to read columns that are not relevant), and more options for data compression.
