Abstract

A system and method are disclosed which enable performance of a transaction-based service utilizing non-transactional resources. In one embodiment, a system is provided that includes one or more non-transactional resources. Such resources may, for example, be resources as are commonly implemented within an IDC. The system further includes at least one component that defines one or more tasks executable by at least one of such non-transactional resources. For instance, a plugin component may be developed and communicatively coupled to a resource manager, and such plugin component may define various services (or tasks or 'functions') that may be performed on a non-transactional resource. Thus, such resource manager may call the particular functions defined by the plugin component as needed to perform a requested transaction. The system may further include a resource manager operable to control execution of the tasks defined by such component (e.g., plugin component) as a transaction.
