Abstract
The claimed subject matter provides a system and/or a method that extends transactional guarantees to unstructured data in a file system. A database engine, configured to retain structured data, can reserve a portion of the file system to store unstructured data to be managed by the database engine. A kernel component can associate a transaction with at least one stream that corresponds to the reserved portion of the file system. The association enables transaction based access to the reserved portion of the file system managed by the database engine.
