OLTP (Online Transaction Processing)
Return to HTAP (Hybrid Transactional and Analytical Processing)
Online Transaction Processing (OLTP) refers to a class of systems designed to efficiently manage and process a large number of transactions conducted by users or applications in real-time. These transactions typically involve inserting, updating, or deleting small amounts of data in a database. OLTP systems prioritize fast response times, data integrity, and concurrency control to support high volumes of concurrent transactions from multiple users or applications. Examples of OLTP applications include retail point-of-sale systems, banking transactions, airline reservations, and online booking systems. OLTP databases are optimized for transactional throughput and are structured using normalized data models to minimize redundancy and ensure data consistency. s://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Online_transaction_processing
