+## Motivation
+
+In the implementation of the Pulsar Transaction, each topic is configured with 
a `Transaction Buffer` to prevent consumers from reading uncommitted messages, 
which are invisible until the transaction is committed. Transaction Buffer 
works with Position (maxReadPosition) and `TxnID` Set 
(aborts).`maxReadPosition` is a position (`ledgerId` + entry sequence ID) for 
which it is guaranteed all messages up to it belong to a finished transaction 
(committed or aborted). Any messages related to an in-flight transaction are 
after maxReadPosition. The broker only dispatches messages, before the 
maxReadPosition, to the consumers. When the broker dispatches the messages 
before maxReadPosition to the consumer, the messages sent by aborted 
transactions will get filtered by the Transaction Buffer. It implements it by 
storing all the aborted transaction IDs in memory.

Review Comment:
   I think we do not need to explain the implementation of transaction buffer 
in the motivation.
   We can leave more information about the concept of the Pulsar transaction in 
the background part.
