An MS Access database helps to keep the information in the systematic manner and the MS JET (Joint Engine Technology) Database Engine is the fundamental component of the Access database. This is a file-sharing database system that allows the processing of the file requests from the clients.
In the multi-user environment, MS Jet is purposed for processing the user's read, write and locking operations which are done on the shared access database. But few of the vulnerabilities attached to this database engine show how the Access database is under threat of corruption using this engine and thus demand access recovery, like:
The data processing request, if remains uncompleted due to the any cause, leaves the database in the inconsistent state. This is when if the network connection gets dropped due to any cause or when the client gets terminated, when some data processing request is on its way.
High stress on the MS Jet is also the running factor for the database corruption. MS jet does no retain the power to work in the too hectic environment and can add the database corruption risks, if used in such. The use with applications like IIS (Internet Information Server) may create several instances in which the database gets corrupted. Additionally, several crashing and locking problems have also been reported. Microsoft suggests that instead of MS Jet, in case of high processing requests where numerous users gain access to the database, other applications like MS SQL Server must be used.
