9.2.11. About Distributed Transactions
A distributed transaction, or distributed Java Transaction API (JTA) transaction is a transaction with participants on multiple JBoss Enterprise Application Platform servers. Distributed transactions differ from Java Transaction Service (JTS) transactions in that the JTS specifications mandate that transactions be able to be distributed across application servers from different vendors. The JBoss Enterprise Application Platform supports distributed JTA transactions.
