----------------------------------
Summary: Optimistic locking to prevent update conflicts
Key: ATLAS-496
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ATLAS-496
Project: Atlas
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: David Kantor
The ATLAS api does not adequately protect against concurrent activity against
the same entity, type or other object.
Some form of locking is desirable, though strict locking and/or 2pc are
problematic in a highly distributed environment. Optimistic locking may be the
best approach so that at a minimum an application attempting to do a
modification will be alerted if another application has touched the same
(object) since that app last retrieved the object.
