Distributed Transaction Management within Adaptive Server tracks the state of a transaction in the local Adaptive Server/Component Integration Services, as well as in all remote servers participating in transactions. When a user application commits a transaction, the commit is propagated to all participating remote servers using Adaptive Server Transaction Coordinator (ASTC). The management of multisite transactions is handled by ASTC in cooperation with Component Integration Services. Component Integration Services registers new participating servers for each transaction, then turns over control of the transaction coordination to ASTC, which calls back into Component Integration Services to execute various commands for transaction management.
