Overview of this book

Continuous changes in business requirements can make it difficult for programmers to organize business logic into database models, which turns out to be an expensive operation as changes to the database may result in errors and incongruity within applications. Supercharging Node.js Applications with Sequelize helps you get to grips with Sequelize, a reliable ORM that enables you to alleviate these issues in your database and applications. With Sequelize, you'll no longer need to store information in flat files or memory. This book takes a hands-on approach to implementation and associated methodologies for your database that will have you up and running in no time. You'll learn how to configure Sequelize for your Node.js application properly, develop a better sense of understanding of how this ORM works, and find out how to manage your database from Node.js using Sequelize. Finally, you'll be able to use Sequelize as the database driver for building your application from scratch. By the end of this Node.js book, you'll be able to configure, build, store, retrieve, validate, and associate your data from a database to a Node.js application.

Implementing Transactions with Sequelize

Throughout the previous chapters, we went over how to ensure that data integrity is maintained from within our Node.js application using life cycle events, validations, and constraints. However, these methods do not guarantee that the data is internally consistent in the database itself. Databases offer a way to atomicize integrity using transactions.

Transactions are used for ensuring a process has been completed without interruptions such as a connection failure or the power abruptly failing. They are also used for isolating, or locking, applications from manipulating data concurrently, which alleviates race condition issues. Transactions promise data validity by following the ACID principle, which stands for atomic (“all-or-nothing” behavior), consistent (adheres to constraints), isolated (transactions happen sequentially and unbeknownst toward each other), and durable (persistent storage).

A generic use case for transactions...
