Transaction processing techniques are deeply ingrained in the
fields of databases and operating systems and are used to monitor,
control and update information in modern computer systems. This book
will show you how large, distributed, heterogeneous computer systems
can be made to work reliably. Using transactions as a unifying
conceptual framework, the authors show how to build high-performance
distributed systems and high-availability applications with finite
budgets and risk.
The authors provide detailed explanations of why various
problems occur as well practical, usable techniques for their
solution. Throughout the book, examples and techniques are drawn from
the most successful commercial and research systems. Extensive use of
compilable C code fragments demonstrates the many transaction
processing algorithms presented in the book. The book will be valuable
to anyone interested in implementing distributed systems or
client/server architectures.
