Suggested Answer: BCD 🗳️
Optimistic Concurrency only locks records from the time when the actual update is performed.
Following are the advantages of using OCC:
Records remain available for other processes to update if they have been selected from the database but haven't yet been updated.
Records are locked for a shorter length of time.
Fewer resources are used to hold the locks during the update process.
Incorrect Answers:
A: Pessimistic Concurrency Control locks records as soon as they are fetched from the database for an update.
E: One record can be selected for update by two different processes at the same time when using OCC.

Correct OCC advantages: Fewer resources are used to lock records during updates. Records are locked for a shorter length of time by using OCC instead of PCC. Records remain available for other processes while they are selected from the database.
