Abstract
Methods for data visibility in nested transactions in distributed systems are performed by systems and devices. Distributed executions of queries are performed in processing systems according to isolation level protocols with unique nested transaction identifiers for data management and versioning across one or more data sets, one or more compute pools, etc., within a logical server via a single transaction manager that oversees the isolation semantics and data versioning. A distributed query processor of the systems and devices performs nested transaction versioning for distributed tasks by generating nested transaction identifiers, encoded in data rows, which are used to enforce correct data visibility. Data visibility is restricted to previously committed data from distributed transactions and tasks, and is blocked for distributed transactions and tasks that run concurrently. Local commits for completed transactions and tasks are used to minimize transaction manager interactions, and instant rollbacks are enabled for aborted transactions and tasks.
