ENHANCING CONSISTENT READ PERFORMANCE FOR IN-MEMORY DATABASES

Techniques are described for maintaining coherency of a portion of a database object mirrored in a particular node of a database. The techniques involve maintaining invalidation logs which identify transactions that have committed to a database. Based on the invalidation logs, the particular node generates invalid-row ID metadata which identifies, for each system change number, one or more rows that are not transactionally consistent with data stored in the database object as of said system change number.
