What is Two-Phase Commit ?..

Answer / syed sohel

The 2PC protocol is so named because it employs the
following two phases prior to committing the operation
performed:

* Phase 1—Prepare. In this phase, each of the programs
involved in the transaction sends a message to the TP
Manager, such as Microsoft Distributed Transaction
Coordinator (MS DTC), informing the TP Manager that it is
ready to and capable of performing its part of the
operation. This phase is also known as prepare because the
programs are prepared either to commit the changes or
rollback the changes. If the TP Manager receives
confirmation from each of the programs involved, it proceeds
to phase 2.
* Phase 2—Commit or Rollback. In this phase, the TP
Manager instructs each of the programs to commit or rollback
all of the changes that were requested as part of the
transaction. A properly executed rollback should return the
system to its original state.
