Introduction to Transactions
• A transaction is a unit of work that is
performed against a database. It is a sequence
of operations performed as a single logical
unit of work. Example: Transferring money
between two bank accounts.
ACID Properties Overview
• Transactions ensure database reliability
through ACID properties:
• - Atomicity: All or nothing.
• - Consistency: Database remains consistent.
• - Isolation: Transactions are independent.
• - Durability: Results are permanent.
• Research Insight: Optimizing ACID compliance
in distributed systems like Google Spanner.
Atomicity
• Ensures that a transaction is completed fully
or not at all.
• Example: Money transfer between accounts.
• Exceptional Case: If a system crash occurs
during the process, partial updates are rolled
back.
Consistency
• Ensures the database transitions from one
valid state to another.
• Example: After an inventory update, the total
stock should remain consistent.
• Exceptional Case: Constraints violation during
a failed transaction.
Isolation
• Ensures that transactions do not interfere with
each other.
• Example: Prevents dirty reads and lost
updates.
• Research Insight: Weak isolation in high-
frequency trading can lead to inconsistencies.
Durability
• Ensures that committed transactions persist
despite failures.
• Example: Data remains intact even after a
power outage.
• Exceptional Case: Database corruption due to
disk failure.
Transaction States
• Transactions go through various states:
• - Active
• - Partially Committed
• - Failed
• - Aborted
• - Committed
• Research Insight: Blockchain systems handle
state transitions differently.
Concurrent Transactions
• Concurrency challenges include dirty reads,
lost updates, and uncommitted data.
• Example: Two users booking the last ticket
simultaneously.
• Research Insight: Financial systems use
advanced locking mechanisms to avoid
conflicts.
Concurrency Control Techniques
• Techniques to handle concurrency include:
• - Locking
• - Timestamp-based protocols
• Example: Preventing deadlocks during
transaction execution.
Failure and Recovery in
Transactions
• Types of failures:
• - System failure
• - Media failure
• - Transaction failure
• Research Insight: Recovery mechanisms in
distributed databases like Amazon Aurora.
Conclusion and Questions
• Key Takeaways:
• - Transactions ensure database integrity and
reliability.
• - ACID properties are essential for robust
transaction management.
• Thank you! Questions are welcome.
