-If you're using an adapter that makes use of transactions (namely Postgres or Redshift), it's worth noting that by default hooks are executed inside of the same transaction as your model being created.
+If you're using an adapter that uses transactions (namely Postgres or Redshift), it's worth noting that by default hooks are executed inside of the same transaction as your model being created.
There may be occasions where you need to run these hooks _outside_ of a transaction, for example:
-* You want to run a `VACUUM` in a `post-hook`, however this cannot be executed within a transaction ([Redshift docs](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/redshift/latest/dg/r_VACUUM_command.html#r_VACUUM_usage_notes))
-* You want to insert a record into an audit at the start of a run, and do not want that statement rolled back if the model creation fails.
