A transaction is a series of operations that appear to execute as one large, atomic operation. Transactions guarantee an all or nothing value proposition: Either all of your operations will succeed, or none of them will. Transactions account for network or machine failure in a graceful, reliable way. Transactions allow multiple users to share the same data and guarantee that any set of data they update will be completely and wholly written, with no interleaving of updates from other clients.

A transaction is a set of operations for which it is important that all succeed or all fail. A transaction should satisfy ACID properties.

Hi there,

I understand what ACID means:

A-Atomicity, C- Consistency, I - Integrity, D- Durability

Can anybody elaborate on each(A,C,I,D) of one with an example?

Thanks
