Abstract

Because the data is a critical "information resource"of organisations, the failure resiliency techniques, in the form of the database recovery, have been always a major issue. The same applies to multidatabase systems (MDBSs). In transaction-based recovery, the so-called ACID properties of transactions are maintained in the presence of failures. In this chapter, the problem area of recovery in MDBS is presented and possible approaches are reviewed. The sufficient and necessary conditions for serialisability-preserving recovery methods are characterised and proved. Specifically, the condition called Denied Local Updates in the Prepared State (DLRP) is identified as a necessary condition for successful recovery. Related work and implementation issues are also discussed.
