The JPA specification defines a
javax.persistence.EntityTransaction interface
that is similar to a JTA transaction. The JPA
application will begin a transaction before making
changes to objects, and then commit (or rollback) the
transaction once the operation is complete. JPA does
not mandate any specific transaction demarcation
boundries; the application is free to begin and
end transactions in the way that the developer deems
suitable. See Chapter 9, Transaction.
The JDO specification defines a
javax.jdo.Transaction interface
that is similar to a JTA transaction. The JDO
application will begin a transaction before making
changes to objects, and then commit (or rollback) the
transaction once the operation is complete. JDO does
not mandate any specific transaction demarcation
boundries; the application is free to begin and
end transactions in the way that the developer deems
suitable. See Chapter 9, Transaction.
Kodo can also integrate with your application server's managed
transactions.
