I am using a NoSQL database MongoDB with Java and Spring Data. I am aware that MongoDB only supports transactions for a single document.

I am using Spring Transactions to carry out MongoDB transcations. I am using TransactionTemplate. What should I set in TransactionManager when using TransactionTemplate?

EDIT

I have something like this:

<bean id=”txtTemplateBean” class=”org.springframework.transaction.support.TransactionTemplate”>
<property name=”transactionManager” ref=”txnManagerBean”></property>

I need to define txnManagerBean to point to something like DataSourceTransactionManager for a MongoDB database.

  • Nothing so far. I need a DataSourceTransactionManager or something similar for MongoDB. Google doesn`t return much. Any ideas? Commented Feb 20, 2013 at 17:49

MongoDB does support transaction-like semantics using two-phase commits.

There is also another independent effort to support transactions in mongodb using optimistic locking.

This answer is outdated. MongoDB4.0 now supports ACID transactions.

MongoDB doesn't support transactions, it only supports atomic operations.

http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/tutorial/model-data-for-atomic-operations/

Here is a post from someone who implemented transactions for MongoDB with optimistic locking: https://stackoverflow.com/a/12757751/1173560
