Surprised to see PHANTOM READ mentioned, isn't that just a concept?
FA
Fabiola

REPEATABLE READ is definitely supported as well.
DO
Donette

Wait, I thought DIRTY READ was a thing too?
CO

Totally agree, those are the main ones!

READ COMMITTED and SERIALIZABLE are two levels in PostgreSQL.

I recall REPEATABLE READ being mentioned in class, but I can't remember if it was paired with SERIALIZABLE or something else.
BU
Buck

I’m a bit confused about DIRTY READ; I thought it was a concept but not an actual isolation level in PostgreSQL.
MA
Malika

I practiced a question like this, and I believe SERIALIZABLE is definitely one of the options.
FA
Fatima

I think I remember that READ COMMITTED is one of the isolation levels, but I'm not sure about the second one.
GL
Gladys

I'm pretty confident the answer is to revert to the latest snapshot. That's the typical way to restore a VM to a previous state, so I'm going with option B.
DE
Delsie
1 year ago
I'm pretty sure Part I describes the TOGAF approach to Enterprise Architecture, so I'll go with option A.
BL
Blair
1 year ago
Okay, I think I've got a strategy for this. I'll focus on the cost and availability of the materials to determine the best option.
AL
Alethea

I think one challenge is definitely reduced visibility due to NAT. That sounds familiar from our practice discussions.
NA
Nana

Hmm, this seems like a tricky one. I'll need to think it through carefully.
DO
Dortha

I think it's the "accept" and "relay" actions, but I'm not completely sure about "accept."
LE
Leonida

B and E for the win! Though I have to say, DIRTY READ sounds like something you'd find in a cheap detective novel, not a database manual.
EL
Eleonora
1 year ago
I always go for SERIALIZABLE when it comes to transaction isolation levels.
VI
Vivan
1 year ago
Yeah, DIRTY READ does sound like it belongs in a mystery novel.
GE
Gearldine
1 year ago
I agree, B and E are the way to go.
BE
Becky
1 year ago
Alright, time to put my PostgreSQL prowess to the test. I'm confident B and E are the correct answers here. Though I do wonder if DIRTY READ is a real thing, maybe it's some kind of avant-garde isolation level that never caught on.
CR
Craig
1 year ago
Yes, DIRTY READ is not a valid option, stick with B and E for the correct transaction isolation levels.
RA
Rachael
1 year ago
DIRTY READ is not one of the supported levels, so you can confidently go with B and E.
CA
Catarina
1 year ago
I think you're right, B and E are indeed supported isolation levels in PostgreSQL.
MA
Marjory
1 year ago
Ah, the age-old PostgreSQL isolation level question. B and E are the way to go, can't go wrong with the classics. Though I have to admit, PHANTOM READ does sound like something out of a horror movie.
KA
Kasandra
1 year ago
I always stick with READ COMMITTED and SERIALIZABLE for my transactions.
PA
Paris
1 year ago
Yeah, PHANTOM READ does sound a bit spooky, but it's not as commonly used in practice.
CL
Clorinda
1 year ago
I agree, READ COMMITTED and SERIALIZABLE are commonly used isolation levels.
TA
Tashia
1 year ago
Ha! DIRTY READ, really? Sounds like something my college roommate would've tried to pull off. I'm going with B and C, those are the legit ones I remember from my PostgreSQL studies.
AR
Arlette
1 year ago
Hmm, B and E seem like the correct answers here. I'm pretty sure DIRTY READ is not an actual isolation level, and PHANTOM READ is just a phenomenon that can occur in certain isolation levels.
MA
Marge
1 year ago
Exactly, those are the two transaction isolation levels supported in PostgreSQL.
CH
Charlena
1 year ago
So, READ COMMITTED and SERIALIZABLE are the two correct options.
GR
Graciela
1 year ago
Yes, DIRTY READ is not a supported isolation level and PHANTOM READ is a phenomenon, not an isolation level.
DO
Dottie
1 year ago
I think you're right, B and E are the correct transaction isolation levels in PostgreSQL.
HA
Haley

So, the correct answers are B) READ COMMITTED and E) SERIALIZABLE.
CA
Cary

PHANTOM READ is indeed a phenomenon that can occur in certain isolation levels, but it's not one of the supported options.
AN
Angelica
1 year ago
Yeah, DIRTY READ is not a supported isolation level in PostgreSQL.
CO
Cordelia

Yeah, DIRTY READ is not an isolation level and PHANTOM READ is just a phenomenon.
MA

I think you're right, B) READ COMMITTED and E) SERIALIZABLE are the correct transaction isolation levels in PostgreSQL.
LU
Luisa

I think you're right, B and E are the correct ones.
GR
Gracie

I'm not sure about the other options, but I know that READ COMMITTED and SERIALIZABLE are commonly used in PostgreSQL for managing transactions.
MO
Moon

I agree with Shizue. READ COMMITTED and SERIALIZABLE are the correct options. They provide different levels of consistency and concurrency control.
SH

I think the two transaction isolation levels supported in PostgreSQL are READ COMMITTED and SERIALIZABLE.
