The key to client/server computing.
Transaction processing techniques are deeply ingrained in the
fields of
databases and operating systems and are used to monitor, control
and update
information in modern computer systems. This book will show you how
large,
distributed, heterogeneous computer systems can be made to work
reliably.
Using transactions as a unifying conceptual framework, the authors
show how
to build high-performance distributed systems and
high-availability
applications with finite budgets and risk.
The authors provide detailed explanations of why various
problems occur as
well as practical, usable techniques for their solution. Throughout
the book,
examples and techniques are drawn from the most successful
commercial and
research systems. Extensive use of compilable C code fragments
demonstrates
the many transaction processing algorithms presented in the book.
The book
will be valuable to anyone interested in implementing distributed
systems
or client/server architectures.
