What is transaction management and ACID properties in JDBC
In this tutorial we are going to learn about transaction management and its ACID properties in JDBC.
Transaction represents a single unit of work.
The ACID properties describes the transaction management well. ACID stands for Atomicity, Consistency, isolation and durability.
- Atomicity means either all successful or none.
- Consistency ensures bringing the database from one consistent state to another consistent state.
- Isolation ensures that transaction is isolated from other transaction.
- Durability means once a transaction has been committed, it will remain so, even in the event of errors, power loss etc.
