How does MongoDB execute Two-Phase Commit (2PC) for multi-shard distributed transactions?

❓ Interview Prompt: Explain multi-shard transactions, Transaction Coordinator node, Two-Phase Commit protocol (Prepare & Commit phases), and global atomicity.

Multi-shard transactions use a Transaction Coordinator node executing a Two-Phase Commit protocol across participating shard nodes.

Code Implementation Example

typescript
console.log('Transaction Coordinator executes Two-Phase Commit across multi-shard cluster partitions');
💡Two-Phase Commit distributed transaction architecture.
🎯 Interview Key Takeaway

Multi-shard transactions use Two-Phase Commit to guarantee global ACID atomicity across cluster partitions.
