It was just over 12 months ago that we announced we were bringing [multi-document ACID transactions](https://www.mongodb.com/transactions) to MongoDB. We shipped the first beta code a couple of weeks later, and then after several thousand of you put transactions through their paces, went to General Availability (GA) as a part of the MongoDB 4.0 release in June 2018.
We're now really excited to announce the next phase of this development with the introduction of Global Transactions, extending our multi-document ACID guarantees from replica sets to sharded clusters. As a result, it will now be even easier for you to address a complete range of use cases by enforcing transactional guarantees across high scale, globally distributed apps.
