Cascading Abort and Cascadeless Schedule

hello everyone welcome back in this video we will understand what is cascading about and cascade less shedule okay so what do we mean by cascade cascade means when effect of one thing is migrated to other and followed by other basically the effect is migrating from one to other and then the next so the effect is cascading right so here we will see the same effect is happening let's start with the example here I have two she goes so I'll call it shedule s1 and I will call it s2 okay now we know that the transaction progress in this manner that if this is a time line and transaction t1 here starts with read one then write one again T to read and write over the variable X okay so I have not written one two subscript because I have characterized the transaction but when you write should you like this s 1 equal to read X then write X then read X then write X then read X then write X ok so basically here both reads for example this read and this read has to be specified that from which transaction it is okay so as here I have already characterized through this representation so I have not written but if you are writing schedule like this you have to specify that this is from transaction 1 this is from transaction 1 this is from 2 to 3 and 3 ok fine so here you can see transaction t1 starts with reading an item okay and then it writes back of course in between it can do some operation which I am NOT writing here then after the transaction t1 Wright State item X you can see transaction t2 reads the data item X okay again it writes and then transaction t3 reads the same item right so basically these reading and writing are dependent now let us assume that at this point of time transaction this transaction t1 aborts okay that is this transaction fails now when this transaction aborts as transaction t2 has read the data item which was not committed so transaction t2 also abort okay and again t3 has read the data item which was not committed by t2 so transaction t3 also abort okay so this cascading abort is very costly because many number of transactions are aborted okay so this is a strictly avoidable case so what we do so this is basically cascading abort okay this is cascading about let me write it down okay the transactions are aborting one by one so this abort is cascading that is why we call it cascading abort now here you can see the same transaction but a bit with a small modification that transaction t2 reads the data item only after it has been committed by t1 okay so t1 writes the data item X but once it is commit then transaction t2 reads it okay so transaction t2 is reading a value of x which is not dirty okay which has been committed fine so now this is a CF read okay similarly here it is committed and then this is transaction t3 is reading right so in any case even if this is a what adhere but it will not abort okay I was assuming but I have already mentioned in the previous chapter or previous video that a committed transaction is not desired to abort okay a committed transaction is already committed it has been saved to the disk so this transaction is already over okay so there is no chance of aborting transaction t1 okay so this is cascade less she jewel in this shit'll or this kind of scheduled cascading abort will not be there okay because all the transactions are reading the committed data okay so this is cascade less scheduled now here you can see that in the first case where we had cascading abort we have cascading roll back okay because when this transaction aborts it has to roll back okay once this transaction rolls back this t2 transaction also has to roll back and then this t3 also has to roll back so this is again cascading roll back so due to cascading abort cascading roll back happens of course I mean this these are correlated terms once transaction about it will roll back okay so this is also called cascading roll back fine now this is all about cascading about and cascade less schedule okay so in next video we will understand what is strict schedule and the correlation between this strict schedule caste schedule a schedule and recoverable schedule okay so see you in the next video thanks for watching
