On the one side, industry experts argue that ACID guarantees (see below) are not necessary on all types of applications and that time gains outweigh any potential losses when ACID guarantees are in place. There is a long-standing debate about transactional processing guarantees in the industry. Whether being a distributed systems engineer or an application developer, one needs to ensure that the system or application transactions are propagated both consistently and atomically to avoid data loss or deviated results.

The transaction is independently executed for data retrieval or updates and must be treated as one entity: It has to either happen in full or not at all. A transaction as it relates to the context of a database consists of a collection of read/write operations that are executed only when every single contained operation is successful. But let’s first define the term “transaction” for companies dealing with data applications. Transactions in modern enterprise systems are ubiquitous and necessary for providing data consistency even in highly concurrent environments.

In this blog post, we take a step back to introduce ACID semantics and transaction processing and lay the foundations based on which data Artisans Streaming Ledger operates. Last month we introduced Ververica Streaming Ledger, our new technology that brings serializable, distributed ACID transactions directly on data streams.
