12 Oct 2024

Description

In this episode, we explore another important piece of technology from Google: Spanner — a globally distributed database that reshapes how massive datasets are managed. We’ll talk about its unique architecture, including the TrueTime API, which solves clock uncertainty to ensure consistency across data centers. We’ll also cover Spanner’s concurrency control, two-phase commit, and lock-free read-only transactions. Plus, discover how Google’s ad platform, F1, leverages Spanner to handle millions of transactions with impressive speed and reliability.
