CloudTran CloudTran In computing, CloudTran, a transaction management product, enables applications running in distributed computing and cloud computing architectures to embed logical business transactions that adhere to the properties of ACID transactions. Specifically, CloudTran coordinates ACID transactionality for data stored within in-memory data grids (e.g., Oracle Coherence, GigaSpaces, and Gemfire), as well as from the data grid to persistent storage systems (e.g., Oracle, MySQL, Microsoft SQL Server, MongoDB). Distributed computing has traditionally relied on a technology called distributed transactions which is an algorithm used to coordinate the storing of a logically-related set of data within more than one database or computer.
Server-side access to data in the server's database. Alternatively, an attacker might break into a server system using vulnerabilities in the underlying operating system and then be able to access database and other files in the same manner as authorized administrators of the server. In the case of distributed computing projects such as SETI@home and the Great Internet Mersenne Prime Search, while the bulk of the operations occur on the client side, the servers are responsible for coordinating the clients, sending them data to analyze, receiving and storing results, providing reporting functionality to project administrators, etc. In the case of an
