Transactional Processing
Transactional processing refers to a series of related computer operations that are completed as a single, indivisible unit, known as a transaction. It ensures that all steps within the transaction are completed successfully; if any step fails, the entire transaction is rolled back to maintain data consistency and accuracy. This process is essential in environments like banking or online shopping, where accurate and reliable data management is critical. It guarantees that data remains correct and that operations are completed fully or not at all, preventing errors or incomplete updates.
