Hi Ali,

Use UPDATE, not INSERT. Thus new labels will be added to list, without 
overwriting old ones. Also consider usage of SET instead of LIST to avoid 
duplicates.

I have a table where each record contains a list<string> of labels.



I have an endpoint which responds to new labels being added to a record by the 
user.



Consider the following scenario:



- Record X, labels = []

- User selects 2 labels, clicks a button, and 2 http requests are generated.

- The server receives request for Label 1 and Label 2 at the same time.

- Both requests see the labels as empty, add 1 label to the collection, and 
send it.

- Record state as label 1 request sees it: [1], as label 2 sees it: [2]



How will the above conflict be resolved? What can I do so I end up with [1, 2] 
instead of either [1] or [2] after both requests have been processed?
