What changed
Härder and Reuter organized transaction-oriented recovery around atomicity, consistency, isolation and durability. Their framework made assumptions about failures and recovery explicit and comparable across database implementations.
Scientific scope
Härder and Reuter organized transaction-oriented recovery around atomicity, consistency, isolation and durability. Their framework made assumptions about failures and recovery explicit and comparable across database implementations. Scope limitation: This is a conceptual synthesis of transaction and recovery work, not the invention of databases or every ACID property. A database using the acronym does not thereby prove correct recovery under every failure.
Evidence
Assessment uses the catalogue-linked source evidence for the stated contribution. This is a conceptual synthesis of transaction and recovery work, not the invention of databases or every ACID property. A database using the acronym does not thereby prove correct recovery under every failure.
