ACID
Published: in 9110d71
- Atomicity: There are no partial updates.
- Consistency: A transaction cannot mutate the data into an incorrect state. This happens at the application level an is responsibility of the application developer.
- Isolation: Transactions run as if no other transactions are executing. They must be concurrent-safe.
- Durability: Once changes are committed they are also persisted in disk to ensure that the database doesn’t lose changes if it crashes.
