Implementation of atomicity and snapshot isolation for multi-row transactions on column oriented distributed databases using RDBMS

As traditional relational database have limitation of scalability in the respect of data as well as number of clients. Column oriented databases overcome this problem with the cost of lacking transaction features as compared to relational database. Column oriented databases only assure single row atomic transaction and does not support Snapshot Isolation. In this paper we show how atomicity in multi-row transaction and snapshot isolation can be achieved for column oriented database using RDMBS.
