Although real-time analytics on the up-to-date dataset has become an emerging demand, many big data systems are still designed for offline analytics. Particularly, for critical applications like Fintech,transactional data ingestionensures a timely, always-correct, and scalable dataset. To carry out append-only ingestion, existing OLTP/HTAP systems are based on strict transactions with imperfect scalability, while NoSQL-like systems support scalable but relaxed transactions. How to ensure essential transactional guarantees without harming scalability seems to be a non-trivial issue. This paper proposesKarstto bring transactional data ingestion for existing offline analytics. We notice that blockingtwo-phase commit(2PC) to resolve transactional data ingestion is a performance killer for the partitioned analytical systems. Karst introduces a scalable protocol calledmetadata-oriented commit(MOC) that converts each distributed transaction into multiple partial transactions to avoid 2PC. Moreover, to ingest massive data into plenty of partitions, Karst also employs lazy persistence, lightweight logging, and optimized data traffic. In experiments, Karst could achieve up to about 2x$\sim$10x performance over relevant systems and also shows remarkable scalability.
