I love seeing these educational databases. I'm still waiting for one to implement some form of MVCC, every one so far always seems to use 2 phase locking.

- eatonphil 5y agoWhat other educational databases are you looking at? Curious in case I'm missing any of them.
- zinclozenge 5y agoRisingLight, SimpleDB by Edward Sciore, SimpleDB for the MIT course are the main ones that come to my mind immediately. I forgot that Erik Grinaker's ToyDB implements MVCC but I remember it being hard to grok and not very straightforward.
- hackthesystem 5y agoThere is also BusTub from CMU which I stumbled upon earlier today: https://github.com/cmu-db/bustub https://github.com/cmu-db/bustub

- zinclozenge 5y agoYou're right, I forgot about this one. I think because when I last looked at it, the MVCC part wasn't very straightforward to me.
- jasfi 5y agoThey are probably no longer just educational dafter implementing MVCC.
- hackthesystem 5y agoThanks! I'd also like to see a MVCC implementation because that would shed some light on how mysql works. I'll add MVCC to the future improvements section
- jsumrall 5y agoLMDB implements MVCC and is pretty easy to read, the implementation is very tiny.
