in thread When to use sigtrap, when to assign to %SIG?

For example, you want to remove a row from one database table and add a corresponding row to another database table. [...] OK, so you'd normally use SQL transactions for that, but what if these two tables are in two different databases, on two different servers, at two different sites?

<offtopic>Well, Oracle can do that in one transaction, if you use a DB link.</offtopic>
