It took me a second to realize what the difference between this slide and the previous slide was.

  • In eager evaluation, the transaction can proceed forward in a commit but also backwards (using the undo log) if we abort the transaction.
  • In lazy evaluation, the transaction can only proceed forward, and it's buffered using the write buffer to make sure that we never have to undo transactions.
