Transactions are ACID (atomic, consistent, isolated, durable)

Hybris provides implementation of spring PlatformTransactionManager

so you can use:
@Transaction
tx xml schema
TransactionTemplate
Or direct hybris API

The JTA UserTransaction interface is not provided

hybris doesnt participate in global transactions of multiple systems

Transactions isolation

Isolation level is fixed to READ_COMMITED

you cant change that with @Transactional annotation (ignored)

Nested transactions are supported

inner transaction simply joins outer transaction

Models are persisted without transaction by default:
model.service.transactional.saves=false

The easiest way to enable transactions in your code

@Transactional(propagation=Propagation.REQUIRES_NEW,
isolation=SERIALIZABLE)
public void provideService()
{
repo1.retrieveFoo();
repo2.retrieveFoo();
}

Notice the isolation level will be ignored!
