Using the current MySQL defacto engine InnoDB. Of course, Falcon, PBXT and others will enable alternative engines to be used.

Read more about earlier decisions at my earlier post Testing a new MySQL Transactional Storage Engine . https://ronaldbradford.com/blog/atomicity-consistency-isolation-and-durability-acid-2006-03-14/ Wed, 15 Mar 2006 07:15:09 +0000 https://ronaldbradford.com/blog/atomicity-consistency-isolation-and-durability-acid-2006-03-14/ ACID is the key transaction processing feature for a RDBMS. Without this, the integrity of the database cannot be guaranteed. In Summary. Atomicity is an all-or-none proposition. Consistency guarantees that a transaction never leaves your database in a half-finished state. https://ronaldbradford.com/blog/testing-a-new-mysql-transactional-storage-engine-2006-03-12/ Sun, 12 Mar 2006 11:59:02 +0000 https://ronaldbradford.com/blog/testing-a-new-mysql-transactional-storage-engine-2006-03-12/ As part of my A call to arms! post about a month ago, I’ve had a number of unofficial comments of support. In addition, I’ve also been approached to assist in the completion of a MySQL Transactional support engine. https://ronaldbradford.com/blog/a-call-to-arms-2006-02-14/ Tue, 14 Feb 2006 14:39:06 +0000 https://ronaldbradford.com/blog/a-call-to-arms-2006-02-14/ With Oracle Corporation purchasing InnoBase, the company providing the InnoDB Storage Engine, and now reliable rumors of the acquisition of SleepyCat, the BDB Storage Engine, both key transactional storage engines for MySQL are effectively owned by a competitor.
