Description

Announcing the public preview of distributed transactions in Azure Cosmos DB. You can now perform atomic operations across items and partitions, with changes committing together or rolling back automatically on failure. 


Distributed transactions eliminate the need for complex application logic to coordinate updates, helping you preserve data integrity and simplify application design. This capability integrates seamlessly with Azure Cosmos DB's consistency and availability models, providing predictable behavior as your applications scale.
