ACID transactions
. A commit is an act of committing. The record of commits is called the commit log.
In terms of transactions, the opposite of commit is to discard the tentative changes of a transaction, a rollback.
The transaction, commit and rollback concepts are key to the ACID property of databases.[1]
A BEGIN WORK (or that may be in use.
BEGIN TRANSACTION, depending on the database vendor) statement, one or more SQL statements, and then the COMMIT statement. Alternatively, a ROLLBACK statement can be issued, which undoes all the work performed since BEGIN WORK was issued. A COMMIT statement will also release any existing savepoints
