 Two-phase-commit protocol - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The two phases of the algorithm are the commit-request phase, in which the coordinator attempts to prepare all the cohorts, and the commit phase, in which the coordinator completes the transactions at all cohorts.
The greatest disadvantage of the two phase commit protocol is the fact that it is a blocking protocol.
In computer networking and databases, the two-phase-commit protocol is a distributed algorithm which lets all nodes in a distributed system agree to commit a transaction.

 Transaction Participants and Two-Phase Commit
The purpose of the two-phase commit protocol is to guarantee that the transaction outcome is atomic — either all of the resource managers must agree to commit the transaction or they must all abort the transaction.
The transaction manager then initiates the second phase of the two-phase commit protocol, during which it informs all the resource managers that the transaction has committed.
Phase Zero notifications provide a mechanism by which applications can detect that a transaction is ready to proceed with 2PC, so that they can perform such operations and communicate to the Transaction Manager when they have been completed.

 Database Two Phase Commit
Two phase commits are done to maintain data integrity and accuracy within the distributed databases through synchronized locking of all pieces of a transaction.
As shown in Figure 7, applying two phase commit protocols ensures that execution of data transactions are synchronized, either all committed or all rolled back (not committed) to each of the distributed databases.
Two phase commit is a proven solution when data integrity in a distributed system is a requirement.

 Atomic commit - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
An atomic commit is a concept supported by modern revision control systems that allows committing—uploading to the source—changes in multiple files (called a changeset) while guaranteeing that all files get fully uploaded and merged.
An Atomic commit means the files that are commited together should concerned a single modification.
If there is a failure before a revision control system client can complete the transaction, such as the Internet line disconnecting or a conflict that cannot be automatically resolved by the revision control system, the "commit" is aborted and all changes that have taken place are reversed (rolled back).

 Abstract
We characterise the two-phase commit and three-phase commit families of protocols in terms of the level of knowledge that must be acquired by a site to commit a transaction.
We show that in the two-phase commit protocol the decision to commit is reached with the minimum knowledge necessary under any atomic commitment protocol; and that in the three-phase commit protocol the decision to commit is reached with the minimum knowledge necessary under any non-blocking atomic commitment protocol.
This lower bound is optimal in that it is matched by the number of messages used by a well-known protocol, the linear (or nested) two-phase commit.

 The Two-Phase Commit Protocol
The Two-Phase Commit (2PC) protocol is a simple and elegant ACP with two types of processes: A single coordinator that decides whether to reach a global commit or abort decision, and the participants that execute the transaction's resource accesses and vote whether to commit or abort.
Phase 1: A coordinator process is started (usually at the site where the transaction is initialized), writes a begin commit record in its log, sends a prepare message to the participants, and enters the wait state.
Phase 2: After the coordinator has received votes from all participants it decides whether to commit or abort according to the global commit rule, and writes this decision in the log.

 Nuts and Bolts of Transaction Processing
Resource managers provide two sets of interfaces: one set for the application components to get connections and perform operations on the data, and the other set for the transaction manager to participate in the two-phase commit and recovery protocol.
For implementing the two-phase commit and recovery protocols, the resource manager should implement supplementary mechanisms using which recovery is possible.
Once the application issues the commit request, the transaction manager prepares all the resources for a commit operation (by conducting a voting), and based on whether all resources are ready for a commit or not, issues a commit or rollback request to all the resources.

The problems encountered in the Two-Phase Commit Protocol (the blocking of the transaction) is an example of a general problem: our inability to guarantee arriving at a consensus in a system where
Notice that in the commit phase we only do write operations and that the order in which we do them is immaterial.
Then the coordinator decides to commit and informs the others in Part 2 but the transaction cannot complete since system j is not there to accept the message from the coordinator and acknowledge it, and the coordinator cannot abort because by now some systems may have finalized their action.

 Chapter 22 Distributed Transactions
When the transaction is ready to commit, the home node is responsible for ensuring that commitment is atomic over all the objects involved.
We may fail to acquire the co-operation of an object in an atomic commitment protocol because it is participating in that for some other transaction.
On restart, the recovery procedures must ascertain the transactions for which commitment was in progress when the crash occurred and the decision reached, if any.

 What is two phase commit?
For example, if your app updates data in two databases, and then you commit, the two-phase commit prevents situations such that if one database becomes unavailable, your changes in one database are committed but in the other database the commit failed.
Abstract: Two phase commit refers to a transaction that can span two or more databases (which may be on different servers).
If any of the databases in the multi-database transaction fails to commit (roll back) the transaction, the transaction is left in a "limbo" state in all databases, and you can use GFIX or InterBase Server Manager for Windows to resolve the limbo transactions later.

 jGuru: What is two-phase commit?
Two-phase commit is a transaction protocol designed for the complications that arise with distributed resource managers.
When a transaction involves multiple distributed resources, for example, a database server on each of two different network hosts, the commit process is somewhat complex because the transaction includes operations that span two distinct software systems, each with its own resource manager, log records, and so on.
A commit operation is, by definition, an all-or-nothing affair.

 How-To: Setup Mid-tier 2-phase Commit Coordinator
Two phase commit is a protocol used between a transaction coordinator and multiple resource managers that ensures that multiple resource managers in a transaction preserve the ACID properties, regardless of failures occur within the system.
In the first phase, the coordinator asks resource managers to checkpoint the work scoped by the transaction and to indicate if they are able to successfully commit that work.
This example demonstrates a simple 2-phase transaction between two Oracle 9i databases.

This is done by handling the transaction in two phases.
Where a system uses two or more database, a transaction among the distibuted database should be atomic ("all or nothing").

 Introduction.
In all these texts, the theoretical limitation of the three-phase commit protocol (that it cannot avoid blocking in the presence of network partition) is emphasized, with no consideration given to designing a network to limit the likelihood of such a partition.
In 1981, Dale Skeen [7] published a message based protocol, known as three-phase commit by later authors, whereby multiple nodes of a network could reliably agree on a consistent final state, commit or abort, in the presence of certain types of network failures.
The three-phase commit protocol is fundamental, and has found its way into a number of texts on the subject (for example, [3,6,2]).

During the first phase, the coordinator is in state w1, and each cohort is either in state a (in which case the site has already sent an abort message to the coordinator) or w or q depending on whether it has received the Commit Request message or not.
The Commit Phase, where all participants respond to the coordinator that they are prepared, then the coordinator asks all nodes to commit the transaction.
Bearing in mind that the 2PC and 3PC protocols are more suited for fixed network, [12] provides the TCOT protocol that could be used with any of the existing models for mobile computing to more efficiently commit and/or abort data.
