This could be done with a conditional write and a sequence number column
per row.

Could do something like the following

  * Read row using isolated scanner or whole row iterator.
  * Assume row has a column like sync:seq.
  * Make changes to row in client.
  * Write conditional mutation with condition that sync:seq is what was
read earlier.  Also increment the sequence number

With this pattern only one client can succesfully read-modify-write a row
concurrently.  In the case where the column synch:seq does not exist, the
conditional mutation should assert it does not exist and set it to an
initial value.


Is this what you are looking for?  Or are you trying to do something else?

Thanks Josh and Keith.
This is exactly what I am looking. I have set some value for row through 
conditional mutation if that exists I am updating the entries of a row. 
So I think in that case conditional mutational will work. It will not be 
interrupted by other threads.

Thanks
Shweta
