Extreme transaction processing (XTP) is an exceptionally demanding form of transaction processing. Transactions of 10,000 concurrent accesses (500 transaction per second) or more would require this form of processing.[citation needed]

Description

XTP applications are designed, developed, deployed, managed, and maintained on computer clusters and/or distributed grid computing networks. As a result, XTP applications feature vast improvements in:

  • performance
  • scalability
  • availability
  • security
  • manageability
  • dependability

These applications generate orders of magnitude more transactions than those created by traditional transaction processing systems because of their wider (often multi-enterprise, national and global) reach.
