Interface NonDurableTransactionParticipant

All Superinterfaces:

TransactionParticipant

public interface NonDurableTransactionParticipant
extends TransactionParticipant

Defines a TransactionParticipant that does not maintain durable persistent state of its own, but instead relies on other participants to store any persistent state that it needs. Because these participants do not need to make any persistent changes on commit or abort, the transaction coordinator is not required to inform these participants of the status of a prepared transaction if it can be certain that the participant has crashed. Transaction coordinators can use this information to optimize their implementation of the two phase commit protocol.
