Abstract
A computer-implementable method for protecting the integrity of dependent multi-tiered transactions is disclosed. The method includes a first application calling a transaction coordinator for the multi-tiered transaction, requesting initialization of a universal transaction context and the transaction coordinator starting a universal transaction composed of at least two component transactions by initializing the universal transaction context and returning a universal transaction identifier to the first application. The first application sending the universal transaction identifier to a second application, the second application committing a first transaction and a third application committing a second transaction depending on the first transaction. The integrity of the dependent transaction is protected by, in response to a failure of the second transaction, rolling back the second transaction and performing an atomic coordinated rollback of the first transaction.
