    Abstract: A storage engine may implement dynamic splitting of contentious data pages. Data pages may store data for a table of a data store as part of an indexing structure for the table. Access to the table may be provided by locating the corresponding data pages via the indexing structure. Access contention for different data pages may be monitored. Data pages may be identified for splitting based on the monitoring. A split operation for an identified data page may be formed to store the data on the identified data page on two different data pages so that subsequent access requests for the data are divided between the two data pages. Monitoring of access contention may also be performed to identify data pages for merging in order to consolidate access requests to a single data page.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed to implement, in a database system, database engine nodes that implement multi-page writes as an atomic operation. In embodiments, the database system may include multiple database engine nodes that optimistically perform page writes locally without checking for potential conflicts at a shared storage system. The storage system will detect and report conflicting writes on a single page. To ensure that a group of writes to multiple pages occur atomically, the database engine node maintains a transaction context for the group, so that if a page conflict is later detected for any write in the group, the entire group will be rolled back at the database engine node and the storage system. In embodiments, the transaction context will track subsequent writes generated by the node to any page written by the group, so that these subsequent writes are also rolled back with the group.
