Pessimistic locking is a strategy that will lock a database record, that is to be updated, for exclusive use until the update is complete.

Pessimistic locking is a strategy that will lock a database record, that is to be updated, for exclusive use until the update is complete. The database record is locked immediately when the lock is requested and it is then guaranteed that the database record will be updated. Unlike optimistic locking, great care must be taken in the application design to avoid deadlocks.
