Summary

Transaction processing was been dramatically revamped in the .NET Framework 2.0. A new lightweight transaction management system has been added to the Framework, and an easy infrastructure for participating in these transactions has been exposed. Transactions use only the resources they need for the work that they’re doing. This means that instead of using the DTC for every transaction from the start, transactions are smart enough to realize when they need the services of distributed transaction management, and enlist the DTC only then.

While for now the best support for this is with SQL Server 2005, future versions of the .NET Framework will offer support for transactions with types from System.Collections (for in-memory transactions) and System.IO (for disk-based transactions). For now, you can easily add support for the types you need, as we’ve showed you for the XMLDocument type.
