COMMIT Statement

The COMMIT statement is used to save all changes made by the current transaction to the database permanently. Once committed, the changes cannot be undone.

Example: Using COMMIT

UPDATE FreedomFighters
SET Contribution = 'Educational Reforms'
WHERE Name = 'Rohini';
COMMIT;

Output:

Changes to the FreedomFighters table are saved permanently.
