Abstract
The subject technology performs, using asynchronous threads of execution nodes of a distributed database, asynchronous transformation and compaction of key-value pairs of data that correspond to a plurality of transactional queries, the asynchronous threads transforming the key-value pairs from an initial format to a commit format that includes a commit time of data committed to the distributed database, the asynchronous threads compacting the key-value pairs by deleting the key-value pairs in the initial format. The subject technology processes, using transactional threads in the execution nodes, the plurality of transactional queries to generate results data, the asynchronous threads performing the asynchronous transformation and compaction while the transactional threads generate the results data. The subject technology stores the results data.
