Advanced Concurrency Management in Enterprise Service Oriented Architecture Based Integrated Business Processing of Distributed Application Components

A system and process that manages access to a resource in an enterprise service-oriented architecture environment. The system recognizes a master for each resource that has ultimate control over the respective resource. The master grants access to the resource though a lock system. If a system does not relinquish access to the resource, then the master is able to reclaim the lock to ensure the continued availability of the resource to all systems. This system ensures data coherency, while also improving performance by diminishing the amount of time a resource is unnecessarily locked and the time to obtain a lock.
