I'm wondering if there's any way to handle concurrent modification of data in a django application.
Say I have a class: ========== class ViewCount(models.Model): object = models.ForeignKey(Foo) count = models.IntegerField(default=0) ========== I'd like to be able to do something like: ========== def incrementCount(target_count): target_count.count = target_count.count + 1 target_count.save() ========== Conceptually, if multiple servers are running, and 2+ try to update the count at the same time, it's possible that the new total would be incorrect. (For completeness: A reads 0, A writes 1, B reads 1, C reads 1, C writes 2, B writes 2... count is 2 but should be 3) Does Django have an integrated solution to this sort of problem? If not, does the community have a 'best practice' for dealing with this?
