How changes, made in the current transaction, can be permanently recordedin MySQL database?

We can use COMMIT command to make the changes, made in a current transaction, permanently recorded in MySQL database. Suppose if we run some DML statements and it updates some data objects, then COMMIT command will record these updates permanently in the database.

Example

mysql> START TRANSACTION;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)

mysql> INSERT INTO Marks Values(1, 'Aarav','Maths',50);
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)

mysql> INSERT INTO Marks Values(2, 'Harshit','Maths',55);
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)

mysql> COMMIT;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.06 sec)

In this example, the COMMIT statement will explicitly end the transaction, and changes will be saved i.e. permanently recorded in the database.

mysql> SELECT * FROM Marks;
+------+---------+---------+-------+
| Id   | Name    | Subject | Marks |
+------+---------+---------+-------+
| 1    | Aarav   | Maths   | 50    |
| 2    | Harshit | Maths   | 55    |
+------+---------+---------+-------+
2 rows in set (0.00 sec)
