Which of the following describes why savepoints are NOT allowed inside an atomic unit of work?
(Select the correct response)
A. Atomic units of work span multiple databases, but savepoints are limited to units of work which operate on a single
database.
B. A savepoint implies that a subset of the work may be allowed to succeed, while atomic operations must succeed or fail
as a unit.
C. A savepoint requires an explicit commit to be released, and commit statements are not allowed in atomic operations
such as compound SQL.
D. A savepoint cannot be created without an active connection to a database, but atomic operations can contain a
CONNECT as a sub-statement.

correct response)

A. Read stability
B. Repeatable read
C. Cursor stability
D. Uncommitted read

Given the following:

A table containing a list of all seats on an airplane. A seat consists of a seat number and whether or not it is assigned. An
airline agent lists all the unassigned seats on the plane. When the agent refreshes the list from the table, it should only
change if another agent unassigns a currently assigned seat.
