Spring Boot Saga Pattern

Overview

Implements distributed transactions across microservices using the Saga Pattern. Replaces two-phase commit with a sequence of local transactions and compensating actions. Supports choreography (event-driven) and orchestration (centralized coordinator) approaches with Kafka, RabbitMQ, or Axon Framework.

When to Use

• Building distributed transactions across multiple microservices
• Replacing two-phase commit (2PC) with a more scalable solution
• Handling transaction rollback when a service fails
• Ensuring eventual consistency in microservices architecture
• Implementing compensating transactions for failed operations
• Coordinating complex business processes spanning multiple services

Trigger phrases: distributed transactions, saga pattern, compensating transactions, microservices transaction, eventual consistency, rollback across services, orchestration pattern, choreography pattern
