Consistency boundaries in SQL databases vs. MongoDB
Defaults may be inconsistent. SELECT FOR UPDATE without OF locks all joined rows, but UPDATE on a join behaves differently as we will demonstrate below. Column-level locking also raises another issue without joins: check constraints must see a consistent state, even for columns that were not updated (see the now-fixed YugabyteDB issue: https://github.com/yugabyte/yugabyte-db/issues/15196).

Crash on clock skew: performance vs availability
In a distributed database, NTP synchronization is essential and should be carefully monitored and fixed in case of any failures. To allow some time drift, a maximum clock skew is set. This skew should be kept low enough for performance to avoid too many read retries and high enough for availability to avoid any node evictions caused by network errors. It is a good idea to check the NTP synchronization when starting a YugabyteDB node. This will be implemented by 22255.
