A strategy that allows work to proceed without holding a lock, then checks at commit time whether the data changed since it was read. A version mismatch rejects the stale write. The application must reread and reconsider its intended change; blindly resubmitting the old value defeats the purpose.
Also called: OCC, Optimistic locking
