Abstract: This paper reviews the working of different concurrency control protocols in Distributed Databases. As the development and maturity of the popular centralized database system moves towards the distributed approach, the challenges and roles start becoming more complex and complicated. The discussion revolves around the variety of protocols, their working, their advantages and their disadvantages in a distributed environment. The paper is a comparative between the methods that are popular and accepted.
