SQLITE TRANSACTIONS AND VIRTUAL TABLES

misfra.me4 min read

Summary from the TLDR Web Dev newsletter

SQLite provides transactional integrity when using virtual tables, which allow accessing external data sources as if they were regular tables. It uses rollback journals and super-journals to maintain atomicity across multiple databases or virtual tables. It also has a two-phase commit process, with an `xSync` hook for durability and hooks `xCommit` and `xRollback` for cleanup.
