Expedited transaction failure handling by leveraging a reliable message transport protocol to assist detection of discarded processing

A hardware system for a web service for immediate failure checking for lost message processing, said system comprising:

• an input and output device of a computing device within a transaction environment of a target web service that receives a first message that includes first message sequence information, and receives a subsequent message including corresponding subsequent message sequence information;
• a non-transitory storage device operatively connected to said input and output device that stores a first record of said first message, and a second record of said subsequent message;
• and
• a processor operatively connected to said input and output device and said storage device, said processor registers a web-service transaction with a transaction service coordinator based on receiving said first message and, when said processor attempts to register a subsequent web-service transaction with said transaction service coordinator based on receiving said second message, said processor identifies a transaction error when said subsequent message is not an initial message in a sequence of messages by comparing said first message sequence information with said subsequent message sequence information,
• said input and output device reporting said transaction error, and
• said processor aborting at least one of a first transaction and a subsequent transaction when said transaction error has occurred.

A non-transitory computer readable storage medium for failure checking for lost message processing in a transaction environment of a target web service, said non-transitory computer readable storage medium having computer readable program code embodied therewith, the computer readable program code being configured to:

• receive a first message of a web-service transaction comprising first message sequence information;
• store a first record of said first message within a computing device, said first record including said first message sequence information;
• register for said web-service transaction with a transaction service coordinator based on said receiving of said first message;
• receive a subsequent message comprising corresponding subsequent message sequence information;
• store a second record of said subsequent message within said computing device, said second record including said subsequent message sequence information;
• compare said first message sequence information with said subsequent message sequence information;
• register a second web-service transaction with said transaction service coordinator based on receiving said second message;
• when attempting to register another web-service transaction with said transaction service coordinator based on receiving said subsequent message, identify a transaction error, when said subsequent message is not an initial message in a sequence of messages;
• report said transaction error to said transaction service coordinator;
• and
• immediately abort processing of said web-service transaction when said transaction error has occurred.
