Abstract
As Grid technology is expanding from scientific computing to business applications, open grid platform increasingly needs the support of transaction services. This chapter proposes a grid transaction service (GridTS) and GridTS based transaction processing model, defines two kinds of grid transactions: atomic grid transaction for short-lived reliable applications and long-lived transaction for business processes. The chapter also presents solutions to managing these two kinds of transactions to reach different consistent requirements. Moreover, this chapter investigates a mechanism for automatic generation of compensating transactions in the execution of long-lived transactions through the GridTS. Finally, it discusses the future trends along the reliable grid platform research.
