Transaction
Management

The RTR transaction is the heart of an RTR application,

and transaction state characterizes the current condition of a

transaction. As a transaction passes from one state to another, it

undergoes a state transition. Transaction states are maintained

in memory, and some states are stored in the RTR journal for

use in recovery.
RTR uses three transaction states to track transaction status:
• Transaction runtime state
• Transaction journal state
• Transaction server state
Transaction runtime state describes how a transaction progresses

from the point of view of RTR roles (FE, TR, BE). A transaction,

for example, can be in one state as seen from the frontend, and

in another as seen from the router.
