## What it is
A collection of sample applications demonstrating Apache Seata (incubating), an open-source distributed transaction solution for microservices architectures. The repository provides runnable Java examples for Seata's AT, TCC, SAGA, and XA transaction modes, integrated with frameworks like Spring, Spring Cloud, Nacos, ZooKeeper, and Dubbo.

## Use cases
- learn how to use seata for distributed transactions
- example of AT mode auto compensation transactions in spring boot
- how to run a seata TCC sample with spring cloud
- saga long transaction example with seata
- XA transaction sample for MySQL with seata
- integrate seata with nacos and dubbo microservices
- sample code for distributed transaction rollback in java

## When to choose
- you are evaluating or learning Seata and want runnable reference code for AT, TCC, SAGA, or XA modes
- you need a starting template for wiring Seata into Spring, Spring Cloud, Dubbo, or Nacos-based microservices
- you want to see the canonical account/order/storage/business demo flow for distributed transactions

## When to avoid
- you need the Seata transaction coordinator or client libraries themselves - use the main apache/seata repository
- you need production-ready transaction middleware rather than example code
- you work outside the JVM ecosystem, since all samples are Java

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: active
- function: developer-tools, middleware
- domain: microservices, databases, developer-tools, tutorials
- platform: jvm, cross-platform
- tags: distributed-transactions, seata, samples, at-mode, tcc, saga, xa, spring, spring-cloud, dubbo, microservices
