How BEGIN, COMMIT, and ROLLBACK Combine Multiple Changes into a Single Operation in PostgreSQL
Transactions in PostgreSQL allow grouping SQL operations into atomic blocks using the commands BEGIN, COMMIT, and ROLLBACK. This ensures data integrity: either all changes are applied or none at all. The mechanism is based on ACID principles - atomicity, consistency, isolation, and durability.
