Transaction Propagation: REQUIRES_NEW

Propagation.REQUIRES_NEW creates a separate transaction that is independent of the caller's transaction. If the caller's transaction rolls back, this one will still commit, which is ideal for audit logs.

java

@Service
public class AuditService {
    @Transactional(propagation = Propagation.REQUIRES_NEW)
    public void logAction(String action) {
        auditRepository.save(new AuditLog(action));
    }
}
