System and method for arranging database restoration data for efficient data recovery in transaction processing systems

摘要

A system and method for assembling database restoration data according to transaction in a transaction processing system. Database restoration data is collated by chronologically storing updated database records in distinct storage banks partitioned according to its corresponding transaction. Resulting database record blocks from storage banks associated with completed database transactions are queued in the order that their corresponding transactions were completed. The queued database record blocks are transferred to storage media, whereby the queued database record blocks are arranged on the storage media according to transaction, and in the order that the active transactions were completed.
