Transaction in SOA

Is it possible to distribute transactions between different SOA services that are located on different platforms, such as .NET or Java?

I know that a transaction can go in and out between WCF services that comes from .NET. But I am not familiar with the Java platform.

Now I am working on a project that transfers services from different platforms.

How can I keep business consistent?

If your SOA infrastructure of your client and server (and, in addition, the base server systems that are accessed in various service implementations) supports WS-Transaction, then this will allow the distribution of transactions.

However, I work in an SOA middleware environment with huge financial services, and we choose transaction management ourselves: using manual compensation. Although a more complex approach, not relying on any distributed transaction coordinator, gives us flexibility and performance.

Cross-service transactions are bad for your SOA as they introduce a lot of cross-service relationships. The frontier of service is the frontier of trust. You better use sagas and compensation, as Daniel noted

This is due to the approaches of the saga and compensation and combines the best of all worlds.
