pessimistic （悲观）locking和optimistic （乐观）locking是oracle保证数据并行访问和避免lost update的2种策略.
pessimistic （悲观）locking是指用户在读取和更新数据的时候，悲观的认为这期间其他用户可能会更新同一记录；因此在更新数据前读取数据的时候，尝试获得该记录的绝对锁，如果其他用户已经锁住该纪录，则被阻塞用户可以选择等待(select for upodate)还是取消等待(select for update nowait)。从而避免lost update，保证了数据一致性。
optimistic （乐观）locking是指用户在读取和更新数据的时候，乐观的认为这期间其他用户不可能更新同一记录，在更新数据前读取数据的时候，不会获得该记录的绝对锁；因此在更新纪录的时候，其他用户很可能已经修改过了该纪录；因此，在更新的时候需要采取自定义编码策略来避免lost update，保证数据一致性。
演示lost update的例子
At year end, Manager Ian decide to increase engineer SHERSA’s salary by 500$;while HR officer need to increase each engineer’s salary by 5%.
Time1: Ian read SHERSA’s salary record:
SQL> select * from emp where name=' SHERSA ';
ID NAME SALARY
---------- ------------------------- ----------
8 SHERSA 3000
Time2: HR read SHERSA’s salary record:
SQL> select * from emp where name='SHERSA';
ID NAME SALARY
---------- ------------------------- ----------
8 SHERSA 3000
Time3: HR update SHERSA’s salary.
SQL> update emp set salary=salary*1.05 where id=8;
SQL> commit;
SQL> select * from emp where name='SHERSA';
ID NAME SALARY
---------- ------------------------- ----------
8 SHERSA 3150
Time4: Ian update SHERSA’s salary by increment 500
SQL> update emp set salary=3500 where id=8;
SQL> commit;
SQL> select * from emp where name='SHERSA';
ID NAME SALARY
---------- ------------------------- ----------
8 SHERSA 3500
Ian更新的数据覆盖了HR更新的纪录，导致丢失更新(lost update)；SHERSA受到了经济损失。
为了避免lost update，需要pessimistic locking 或者optimistic locking。
pessimistic locking 策略
通过在读纪录时，采用select for update锁住该纪录,再进行更新。
Time1: Ian read SHERSA’s salary record:
SQL> select * from emp where name=' SHERSA ' for update;
ID NAME SALARY
---------- ------------------------- ----------
8 SHERSA 3000
Time2: HR read SHERSA’s salary record:
SQL> select * from emp where name= ' SHERSA ' for update;
无法获得行上的绝对锁，被另外的session Ian阻塞
Time3: HR has to wait …. Or cancel operation by using “for update nowait”
SQL> select * from emp where name='SHERSA' for update nowait;
select * from emp where name='SHERSA' for update nowait
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00054: resource busy and acquire with NOWAIT specified
Get “resource busy”错误
Time4: Ian update SHERSA’s salary by increment 500
SQL> update emp set salary=3500 where id=8;
SQL> commit;
SQL> select * from emp where name='SHERSA';
ID NAME SALARY
---------- ------------------------- ----------
8 SHERSA 3500
Time5: HR update SHERSA’s salary
SQL> update emp set salary=salary*1.05 where id=8;
SQL> commit;
SQL> select * from emp where id=8;
ID NAME SALARY
---------- ------------------------- ----------
8 SHERSA 3675
