Scalar DB is a universal transaction manager that achieves:

• database/storage-agnostic ACID transactions in a scalable manner even if an underlying database or storage is not ACID-compliant.
• multi-storage/database/service ACID transactions that can span multiple (possibly different) databases, storages, and services.

The library is available on Maven Central. You can install it in your application using your build tool such as Gradle and Maven.

To add a dependency on Scalar DB using Gradle, use the following:
