ACID transaction
- Type of database transaction with four properties:
- Atomicity
- Operations will either succeed or fail
- Consistency
- Transactions cannot bring the database into an invalid state
- Isolation
- Execution of multiple transactions concurrently will have the same effect as if they had been executed sequentially
- Durability
- Any committed transaction is written to non-volatile storage
- Will not be undone by a crash, power loss, etc.
- Atomicity
