==Orthogonality== Atomicity does not behave completely [[Orthogonal (computing)|orthogonally]] with regard to the other [[ACID]] properties of transactions. For example, [[Isolation (database systems)|isolation]] relies on atomicity to roll back the enclosing transaction in the event of an isolation violation such as a [[Deadlock (computer science)|deadlock]]; [[Consistency (database systems)|consistency]] also relies on atomicity to roll back the enclosing transaction in the event of a consistency violation by an illegal transaction. As a result of this, a failure to detect a violation and roll back the enclosing transaction may cause an isolation or consistency failure.
