Support for Microsoft Transaction Server (MTS)

Microsoft Transaction Server (MTS) is a component-based transaction processing system for building, deploying, and administering Internet and Intranet server applications. The MTS programming model provides a transaction coordination framework for developing components that encapsulate business logic. In Windows XP, MTS and Microsoft's Component Object Model (COM) are unified in COM+.

USoft applications can be integrated with the Microsoft Transaction Server (MTS) architecture to support distributed transactions. A USoft application and MTS components can be involved in distributed, 'global' transactions. One of the main advantages is that these distributed transactions benefit from the two-phase commit protocol.

Requirements

To be able to integrate USoft Developer with MTS, you need:

•MTS version 2.0

•MS SQL Server version 7.0 or Oracle version 7.3.4 or higher

•Microsoft ODBC Manager version 3.51.
