Isolation Levels is a critical concept in database management that ensures data integrity and consistency in concurrent database systems. It defines the level of protection against data anomalies, such as dirty reads, lost updates, and phantom reads, when multiple database transactions occur simultaneously.
What is Isolation Level?
In database systems, isolation levels determine how transactions interact with each other. A transaction represents a sequence of database operations that either complete successfully (commit) or fail (rollback). Isolation levels define the degree of isolation between concurrent transactions, ensuring predictable and consistent results.
