ActivitySessions
This page provides a starting point for finding information about ActivitySessions, a WebSphere extension for reducing the complexity of commitment rules and limitations that are associated with one-phase commit resources.
Use ActivitySessions to extend the scope and group multiple local transactions. With this capability, you can commit these transactions based on either deployment criteria or through explicit program logic.
- The ActivitySession service
The ActivitySession service provides an alternative unit-of-work (UOW) scope to that provided by global transaction contexts. An ActivitySession context can be longer-lived than a global transaction context and can encapsulate global transactions.
