Transaktiokäyttö
Transaktiokäyttö, known in English as transactional use, refers to the way data is accessed and manipulated within a system to support a series of discrete, atomic operations. These operations, often referred to as transactions, are fundamental to many software applications, particularly those dealing with financial data, inventory management, or any scenario where data integrity is paramount. The core principle of transactional use is that a sequence of operations must either complete entirely successfully or fail completely, leaving the system in its original state. This is often described by the acronym ACID: Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation, and Durability. Atomicity ensures that all parts of a transaction are performed or none are. Consistency guarantees that a transaction brings the system from one valid state to another. Isolation ensures that concurrent transactions do not interfere with each other. Durability means that once a transaction is committed, it will remain so, even in the event of system failures.
Transactional use is critical for maintaining data accuracy and reliability. For example, when transferring money between
