Entry MS SQL
Quick Answer ACID stands for: Atomicity (all or nothing), Consistency (data stays valid before and after), Isolation (transactions don't interfere with each other), Durability (once committed, data survives crashes). These four guarantees make transactions reliable in production systems.

Consistency: Valid states only.
Isolation: No interference between transactions.
Durability: Data persists after commit.
