Abstract

A distributed database system may perform a single phase commit for transactions involving updates to multiple databases of the distributed database system. A client request may be received that involves updates to multiple database of the distributed database system. The updates may be performed at a front-end database and a back-end database. Log records indicating the updates to the front-end database may be sent to the back-end database. The log records and the updates performed at the back-end database may be committed together as a single phase commit at the back-end database. In the event of a system failure of the front-end database, log records may be requested and received from the back-end database. A restoration of the front-end database may be performed based, at least in part, on the received log records.
