Microsoft Transaction Server (MTS) is a technology that provides many powerful tools to the COM and DCOM programmer. The transactions it is capable of maintaining allow for highly scaleable database access with a high level of fault tolerance, allowing the developer to abort modifications smoothly, and roll back, resources to their original state with the minimum of effort. A knowledge of MTS is becoming ever more important with the advent of COM+, which is in many ways an integration of MTS with COM. MTS is also about distributed transactions, and the multi-machine deployment options available allow much more flexibility than using plain DCOM. An added bendit is that it achieves this !n a more user-friendly way than has previously been possible. In addition, MTS introduces the object context, which provides control over security and transaction requirements above and beyond the simple apartment requirements of plain COM objects. Contents In 8 Chapters: Interception, MTS and COM, Programming Issues, Packages and Deployment, The Distributed Transaction Coordinator, Security, MTS Debugging, and The Way Forward. Plus Appendix A: MTS Events, and Introduction. Large heavy book that may incur additional charges for priority shipping to some locations.
