Durability

ACID

Database transactions are ACID:

  • Atomic: Changes by a transaction are all-or-none. Partially applied updates cannot be seen.

  • Consistent: Transaction changes the database from one consistent state to another.

  • Isolated: Transation runs as if nothing else were going on in the database at the same time.

  • Durable: Committed changes must not be lost.
