The clustered DB I have in mind deals with this by assigning auto-incrementing IDs from non-colliding spaces. E.g. in a two-server setup, server0 assigns evens, server1 assigns odds. So unless you need monotonically increasing IDs, you don't have a problem. Other potential problem places are local file stores, and server processes that don't lock rows while working. Thanks! - MortyThere's stuff above here
