Orthodox Processing

Orthodox Processing is a method used in computer systems and databases to ensure data integrity during transactions. It follows the principles of the ACID properties—Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation, Durability—to guarantee that operations are completed fully or not at all, and that the system remains accurate and reliable. For example, when transferring funds between accounts, Orthodox Processing ensures the amount is deducted and credited correctly, even if a failure occurs during the process. This approach maintains the correctness and stability of data across complex, concurrent operations, providing trustworthiness in data management systems.
