Durability

Maintaining updates of committed transactions is critical. These updates must never be lost. The ACID property of durability addresses this need. Durability refers to the ability of the system to recover committed transaction updates if either the system or the storage media fails. Features to consider for durability:

bulletrecovery to the most recent successful commit after a database software failure
bulletrecovery to the most recent successful commit after an application software failure
bulletrecovery to the most recent successful commit after a CPU failure
bulletrecovery to the most recent successful backup after a disk failure
bulletrecovery to the most recent successful commit after a data disk failure
