Figure 57. Example of a distributed transaction under an application server
Figure 58 illustrates a program that uses JTA methods to execute a distributed
transaction. This program acts as the transaction manager and a transactional
application. Two connections to two different data sources do SQL work under a
single distributed transaction.
