And it is the application server that manages global transactions through JTA. On the other hand, a local transaction is resource-specific, for example, a transaction associated with a JDBC connection. Local transactions cannot work with multiple resources.

You can use Spring'sTransactionTemplateAPI to manage transactions programmatically or use thePlatformTransactionManagerAPI directly. For declarative transaction management, you can apply the@Transactional...
