To ensure that logs representative of data changes are durably written, localized storage media cache is flushed to force a write to stable storage. Log sequence number tracking is leveraged to determine if log data in a localized storage media cache is likely to have not been written to durable storage. When this condition is likely, a FLUSH_CACHE command is issued to a storage media controller to force a durable write. This allows recovery of data changes to a transactional system even when its associated storage media does not provide write-ordering guarantees. Moreover, flushing of the storage media cache can be accomplished at a frequency that provides an upper bound on a maximum time between a transaction commit and data being made durable.
