A transaction processing method includes: dividing a to-be-processed transaction obtained from a database into at least two subtransactions; dividing each subtransaction into N parts with an association relationship; processing the N parts of each subtransaction based on the association relationship, to obtain a processing result of a lastly executed part of the N parts; determining, upon detecting an abnormal subtransaction based on the processing result, a processing policy matching an abnormality reason of the abnormal subtransaction; and processing the abnormal subtransaction by using the processing policy, to obtain a final processing result of the to-be-processed transaction.
