PPalantir·DSASWE-2Decision / Coding (Decic)
Design an In-Memory Database With Transactions
Problem
Implement an in-memory key-value database supporting set, get, delete, multi-field records, and nested transactions with begin, commit, and rollback.
Example
begin(); set(a,1); begin(); set(a,2); rollback(); get(a) -> 1; commit()
Constraints
- Nested transactions must roll back to the correct snapshot
What Palantir looks for
This is a signature Palantir 'Decision/Coding' problem — implementation-heavy. Use a stack of change-logs for rollback; discuss isolation.
