MongoDB has announced that it will support multi-document ACID transactions in its 4.0 release. With this release, MongoDB will now have the power of NoSQL and cross-collection ACID transaction support. This combination will make it easy for developers to write mission-critical applications leveraging the power of MongoDB. ACID (Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation, Durability) describes the ability to guarantee that a transaction is valid, which is difficult when data is distributed across multiple documents. With these multi-document transactions, MongoDB will now provide a globally consistent view of data across replica sets and enforce all-or-nothing execution to maintain data integrity.
