Abstract
Approaches are disclosed for lock optimization and lock prediction for reducing the number of client-server messages involved in working with server-based resources. First one or more lock requests for first one or more locks on a remote data resource that is linked by a slow communication link are received. Based on the first one or more lock requests, a sequence of lock requests for locks on the remote data resource is determined. A first message that includes the sequence of lock requests is sent. A second message is received. The second message includes second one or more locks on the remote data resource, where the second one or more locks correspond to second one or more lock requests of the sequence of lock requests. A particular lock of the second one or more locks is granted in response to receiving a particular lock request for the particular lock on the remote data resource.
