Getting started with MongoDB transactions using Node.js

Introduction

The need to maintain database integrity cannot be overemphasized. One of the ways to ensure this is by performing ACID transactions; this simply means that actions are meant to be completed as a 'whole' are either all completed or not completed at all.

While the emphasis on NoSQL databases is scalability, implementing ACID transactions in the logic layer cannot suffice in all scenarios.

Key takeaways

By the end of this tutorial, the reader will be able to understand:

• What database transactions are
• When to use database transactions
• How to implement database/ACID transactions using MongoDB

Article quality

This will be in-depth coverage of this concept; including the history of the concept and a demonstration of how it works.
