Distributed transaction processing systems are designed to facilitate transactions that span heterogeneous, transaction-aware resources in a distributed environment. Using distributed transactions, an application can accomplish tasks such as retrieving a message from a message queue and updating one or more databases in a single transactional unit adhering to the ACID (Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation and Durability) criteria. This article outlines some of the use cases where distributed transactions (XA) could be used and how an application can achieve transactional processing using JTA along with the best of the breed technologies. The main focus is on using Spring as a server framework and how one can integrate various JTA implementations seamlessly for enterprise level distributed transactions.
