Transactions that modify data do not block transactions that read data, and transactions that read data do not block transactions that write data, as they normally would under the default READ COMMITTED isolation level in SQL Server. This non-blocking behavior also significantly reduces the ...
Notice how Query2 waited for the first transaction to complete before returning and also how the data returned is the data we started off with as Query1 did a rollback. The reason no isolation level was specified is because Read Committed is the default isolation level for SQL Server. If y...
This article describes the steps that you must follow to enable the snapshot transaction isolation level in Analysis Services.
When the SNAPSHOT isolation level is enabled, each time a row is updated, the SQL Server Database Engine stores a copy of the original row intempdb, and adds a transaction sequence number to the row. The following is the sequence of events that occurs: A new transaction is initiated, and...
In SQL Server, you can also minimize locking contention while protecting transactions from dirty reads of uncommitted data modifications using either: TheREAD COMMITTEDisolation level with theREAD_COMMITTED_SNAPSHOTdatabase option set toON. TheSNAPSHOTisolation level. For more information about snapshot ...

Assume that you use snapshot isolation level in an instance of Microsoft SQL Server 2016. You create a nonclustered columnstore index. If you reorganize indexes frequently or you run a snapshot scan for a long time...
SQL Server does not guarantee that lock hints will be honored in queries that access metadata through catalog views, compatibility views, information schema views, metadata-emitting built-in functions.Internally, the SQL Server Database Engine only honors the READ COMMITTED isolation level for metadata...
