One aspect of the invention is a method for updating a database providing persistent storage for a plurality of objects each comprising methods and instance variables, wherein a persistent record of each of the plurality of objects will experience a change in the context of a transaction if the transaction is allowed to commit. The method comprises sending a first prepare message to each of the plurality of objects, the plurality of objects sending their state to the database in response to the first prepare messages. A second prepare message is sent to the database if a prepared indicator was received in response to each of the first prepare messages. A commit message is sent to each of the plurality of objects and to the database if a prepared indicator was received in response to each of the first prepare messages and if a prepared indicator was received in response to the second prepare message.
