  Transaction Logging Concepts
When an error occurs during a transaction, these log records are used to roll back the transaction, removing all of its effects on the database (restoring all data items to their previous values).
Transactions can be rolled back explicitly at the request of the application or the user, or automatically by the database manager when an error occurs and the application is no longer able to communicate with the database.
To recover the database, the roll-forward process combines a backup copy of the database with the records in the after-image log to redo all the changes that were made since the backup was created.

 Database transaction - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A database transaction is a unit of interaction with a database management system or similar system that is treated in a coherent and reliable way independent of other transactions that must be either entirely completed or aborted.
In database products the ability to handle transactions allows the user to ensure that integrity of a database is maintained.
When this happens it is usually important to be sure that the database is not left with only some of the queries carried out.

 Transaction processing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Transaction processing is designed to maintain a database in a known, consistent state, by ensuring that any operations carried out on the database that are interdependent are either all completed successfully or all cancelled successfully.
This transaction is a single operation in the eyes of the bank, but it involves at least two separate operations in computer terms: debiting the savings account by $500, and crediting the checking account by $500.
In some cases, two transactions may, in the course of their processing, attempt to access the same portion of a database at the same time, in a way that prevents them from proceeding.

 Magma Database Transaction Logging Persistency Squeak Smalltalk
My understanding of the traditional approach is to perform "transaction logging" to a log file that can, in the event of a power failure in mid-commit, be used as input to a "recovery utility" to allow proper restoration of that transaction and overwrite any potential corruption in the main db file.
Note that the primary purpose of a transaction log is not to "save the data", but to be able to bring the database back into a consistent state.
In that case oracle freezes the database files and *only* writes to the redo-logs (they are the real thing).

 Single database transaction across a multiple HTTP requests?
Having a database lock or a transaction in progress while waiting for user input is a disaster waiting to happen.
This procedure helps prevent a situation known as a "deadly embrace" where transaction #1 locks table A, and transaction #2 locks table B. If transaction #1 then tries to lock table B it is forced to wait until transaction #2 releases the lock.
A deadly embrace occurs when transaction #2, instead of releasing the lock on table B attempts instead to lock table A. Neither transaction can proceed until the other one releases its database locks, and neither transaction is willing to release the locks it already has in place.

 K-Zone computing -- EJB transactions
Transaction management in EJBs is complicated by the fact that different principles apply to different (session and entity) EJBs, and the system works differently depending on which combinations of container-managed persistence and container-managed transcations the EJB is designed for.
Transactions can be managed by the container; in this case the developer's role is to specify the correct `declarative' transaction attributes in the deployment descriptor.
A transaction is a sequence of operations that must all complete successfully, or leave system in the state it had before the transaction started.

 Embedded database transaction logging for real-time, embedded systems — persistence in the eXtremeDB in-memory database   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
Logging is performed through periodic checkpoints, where the image of the in-memory database is saved to persistent storage, and all intermediate changes to the database are written to the log files.
A disk-based database, however, will perform many writes per transaction (data pages, index pages, transaction log, etc) and the larger the transaction and the more indexes that are modified, the more writes that are necessary.
For example, transaction logging may be turned on or off at runtime and, when turned on, logging may be set to different levels of transaction durability, allowing system designers to make intelligent trade offs between performance and risk for unrecoverable transactions.

 Database Driver for SQL Server
When a database table is first imported to a Prolifics repository, the new repository screen has one table view that is named after the database table.
After the transaction is declared, its name is used to begin and to commit or to rollback the transaction.
Use this command to rollback a transaction and restore the database to its state prior to the start of the transaction or at the time of the specified savepoint.

 Rapid Database Recovery with Differential Backups
To recover the database to it's status at 9:30 we have to first restore the full database dump, then all the transaction log dumps from 1 am to 10 am, specifying "stop at 9:30" for the last (10 am) restore.
Now to restore our database to it's state of play as at 9:30, we only have to restore 4 files, the full database dump, the differential, and then the transaction log backups from 9 am and 10 am.
To restore the database to 5:30, all we need to restore is the original database dump, the second differential dump (remember, it includes the contents of the previous differential) and the 6 pm transaction log dump with a "stop at" parameter of 5:30.

Normally, it writes the event into the attendee's calendar (this operation is a database transaction).
Then, it updates the queue entry to reflect that the delivery to the attendee has been handled (this operation is a database transaction).
Thus, unless the database file becomes physically corrupted, a server crash after the third attendee's calendar has been updated should not affect the net result of the group scheduling operation.

 Database Transaction Isolation Levels
This method sets the transaction isolation level used for both database read and write operations on the database connections obtained from either an internal or external connection pool (see "Connection Pools"), for both internal transactions and external transactions as in the case of CMP.
Although database transaction isolation applies to both read and write connections, the read is not performed as part of the transaction.
However, from the perspective of database transaction isolation, there is a one-to-one relationship between transaction and database connection: that is, all database operations (including read operations) must use the same database connection in order to achieve a particular database transaction isolation level.

 Real-Time Database Transaction Scheduling   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
ABSTRACT: A real-time database system (RTDBS) can be defined as a database system which is designed to provide real-time response to the transactions of data-intensive applications, such as banking, stock market, and computer-integrated manufacturing.
Efficient transaction scheduling algorithms are required to maximize the number of transactions satisfying their timing constraints.
We evaluate the real-time performance of existing and developed transaction scheduling algorithms using both analytic methods and the simulation technique.

 A database transaction log file grows unexpectedly in Microsoft Project Server 2002 and in Microsoft Project Server 2003
SQL transactions may not be completed successfully and may start to roll back.
The database transaction log may grow quickly because of the many changes that Microsoft Office Project Professional 2003 or Microsoft Project Professional 2002 and Microsoft Project Server 2003 or Microsoft Project Server 2002 record in the transaction log.
Besides displaying the symptoms that are listed in the "Symptoms" section, SQL Server may mark databases that are suspect because of a lack of disk space for transaction log expansion.

 VMTN Discussion Forums: VirtualCenter Database Transaction Log ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
I think there is a transaction that SQL can't halt and thus it never is able to truncate the log.
The transaction log will not truncate until it reaches the beginning of the first file after you have backed up the transaction log in the database.
The reason why it will not shrink the transaction log is because the transaction log pointer is still at the end of the transaction log but probably in the middle of the last allocated growth of the database.

 Database Transaction Management
A transaction may have multiple components, each components may be classified as a transaction in the database sense, e.g.
SQL Server has savepoints which are markers in the midst of transactions so that the database can be rolled back to those points instead of the beginning of the transaction: e.g.
HOLDLOCK -- Makes a shared lock more restrictive by holding it until the completion of a transaction (instead of releasing the shared lock as soon as the required table or data page is no longer needed, whether or not the transaction has been completed).
