If you do it right -- MVC style -- you can use the Sling/Jackrabbit combo just as you would use a database with <name-a-fraemwork-here>. For transactionality Jackrabbit supports regular JTA-transactions (consider carefully, whether you really, really need real transactions). Or you can use other JCR features to be able to control not selling more than you have. Regards Felix
