Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for relational database locks based on columns. Database transactions may be targeted to specific columns of one or more records, instead of the entire row for those records, using primary keys. Column locks on specific keys are stored separately than column locks on ranges of keys, which are both checked when requesting a new column lock for either a single key or a range of keys. When a threshold number of columns for a given record, or range of records/keys, have been locked, the column locks for that record, or range of records, can be combined into a single row level lock to reduce resource costs for maintaining multiple concurrent locks.
