Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention relate to methods, systems, and computer program products for distributed transaction management. In a method, a first transaction is performed, where both a first data in a first application system and a second data in a second application system are to be accessed in the first transaction. A second transaction is identified in response to a determination that the second data in the second application system fails to be accessed in the first transaction, the first data in the first application system being accessed in the second transaction during performing the first transaction. A value of the first data is determined based on status of the first transaction and status of the second transaction.
