A two-phase commit is a standardized protocol that ensures that a database commit is implementing in the situation where a commit operation must be broken into two separate parts.
In database management, saving data changes is known as a commit and undoing changes is known as a rollback. Both can be achieved easily using transaction logging when a single server is involved, but when the data is spread across geographically-diverse servers in distributed computing (i.e., each server being an independent entity with separate log records), the process can become more tricky.
