DATABASE TRANSACTION• Transactions are a sequence of modifications in

the database executed as a single unit of work:– Either all of them execute successfully–Or none of the them

• Example:– A bank transfer from one account into

another (withdrawal + deposit)– If either the withdrawal or the deposit fails

the whole operation is cancelled

ACID Properties of Transactions

• Atomicity– Either all modifications are performed, or none

• Consistency– When completed, transactions leave all data and all

related structures in a consistent state• Isolation– Transactions don't see other's transaction's

uncompleted work (intermediate state)• Durability– Transactions persist despite of system failure

• A transaction is a logical unit of work that contains one or more SQL statements. Transactions can be

committed or rolled back. When a transaction makes multiple changes to the database, either all the

changes succeed when the transaction is committed, or all the changes are undone when the transaction is

rolled back..

• A transaction begins with the first executable SQL statement. A transaction ends when it is committed or rolled back, either

explicitly with a COMMIT or ROLLBACK statement or implicitly when a DDL (Data Definition Language is used to manage

table and index structure and CREATE, ALTER, RENAME, DROP and TRUNCATE statements are to name a few data definition

elements) statements is issued.

Transaction Statements• The START TRANSACTION or BEGIN statement begins a

new transaction.• COMMIT commits the current transaction, making its

changes permanent. • ROLLBACK rolls back the current transaction,

cancelling its changes.• By default, SQL Server runs with autocommit mode

enabled. This means that as soon as you execute a statement that updates (modifies) a table, SQL Server stores the update on disk to make it permanent. The change cannot be rolled back.

BEGIN TRANSACTION ;// set auto commit to disabled

COMMIT; // store the changes permanently to database

ROLLBACK; // go to previous state of data base

example

BEGIN TRAN UPDATE authors SET au_fname = 'John' WHERE au_id = '172-32-1176' UPDATE authors SET au_fname = 'Marg' WHERE au_id = '213-46-8915' COMMIT TRAN -
