INFO: Updating Data in Sources Other Than Databases

• Microsoft Transaction Server, versions 1.0, 2.0

SUMMARY

Packages can include components that update data in sources other than databases. Sources of data for package components are known as Resource Managers. Although a broad range of database products can serve as Resource Managers, at this time there is no capability for non-database products (such as a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet) to serve as Resource Managers. This does not prevent you from building components that use non-database sources as long as you are aware that transaction coordination does not occur with these components. This allows you to exploit the DCOM facility of Transaction Server in a non-transactional environment.
