Transaction Service

Purpose

This component manages all transactions on the Java server processes.

It includes the following modules:

●      Java Transaction API (JTA) implementation – enables the integration between the application server and the components that participate in a distributed transaction (application components and resource managers).

·        Java Transaction Service (JTS) implementation – enables management and execution of transactions from other servers (either Java server processes or application servers by other vendors) by providing a low-level Java mapping of the Object Transaction Service (OTS) standard by Object Management Group (OMG).

Features

With the implementation of both JTA and JTS, the Transaction Service offers a broad range of functions regarding transaction execution on the AS Java. Among them are:

·        Support for distributed transactions – enables integration of more database or other EIS systems into one transaction.

·        Support for local transactions – enables local transaction optimization.

·        Support for the two-phase commit protocol (2PC) – Transaction Service uses it when completing distributed transactions to ensure synchronization between them.

You can customize following properties :

●      Enable the enlisting of local resource in a propagated transaction

●      Manage the transaction timeout.
