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.
Remote Data Services to do this via an open XML-based standard. Remote Data Services Remote Data Services (RDS, formerly known as Advanced Data Connector or ADC) is a Microsoft technology used in conjunction with ActiveX Data Objects (ADO) that allowed the retrieval of a set of data from a database server, which the client then altered in some way and then sent back to the server for further processing. With the popular adoption of Transact-SQL, which extends SQL with such programming constructs as loops and conditional statements, this became less necessary and it was eventually deprecated in Microsoft Data Access Components version 2.7.
