Explore locking and concurrency control in relational database management systems through this PHP UK Conference talk. Delve into essential concepts such as table and row locks, multiversion concurrency control (MVCC), deadlocks, lock waits, transactions, and isolation levels. Gain a deeper understanding of various database errors and learn how applications should handle them. While examples focus on MySQL 5.6, acquire theoretical knowledge applicable to most databases. Discover upcoming features, explore backup strategies, and participate in interactive sessions on shared locking and deadlock detection. Examine the differences between optimistic and pessimistic concurrency, and understand application responsibilities in managing database interactions. Investigate internal locking mechanisms, scalability concerns, and advanced topics like triggers, raw metadata, and thread deadlocks. Learn to diagnose and resolve concurrency issues to optimize database performance and maintain data integrity in your PHP applications.
