Hedera introduced Batch Transactions through HIP-551, allowing developers to group multiple actions — such as transfers, mints, or consensus messages — into a single atomic operation. If one step fails, the entire batch is rolled back, ensuring all-or-nothing execution.
This new capability simplifies complex workflows without requiring smart contracts. It improves reliability for applications like multi-party approvals, compliance operations, and cross-service transactions, all while maintaining Hedera’s fast finality and predictable fees.

major @awscloud outage observed today — where “decentralized” L1/L2 networks with an over-reliance on AWS for node ops experienced downtime

In his 2023 blog post, Brady Gentile explains how Hedera’s distributed node hosting and stake distribution model prevented any downtime.
