The ACID Properties of Databases ~ Key Concepts in System Design
In this video, we explore the essential ACID properties that ensure database reliability and consistency. ACID stands for Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation, and Durability—four key principles that work together to guarantee that transactions in a database are processed correctly and reliably. We break down each property with simple explanations and real-world examples, including how databases handle issues like Dirty Reads, Non-Repeatable Reads, and Phantom Reads. Understanding ACID is crucial for anyone involved in system design and transaction management. Watch to learn how these properties maintain data integrity and performance in your database systems.
