It's a nice intro! One thing I would respectfully suggest is using more precise terminology than "ACID". Jepsen has a great resource for looking at various consistency models (https://jepsen.io/consistency/models) and while every database these days says it is "ACID", very few can guarantee Strict Serializability in a distributed setting, like FoundationDB does.

Good suggestion. I take serializability for granted.
