Abstract

A method, computer program product, and computing system for receiving a plurality of requests to perform an operation of a first operation type on a storage object. A shared write lock associated with the first operation type is provided to each thread requesting to perform an operation of the first operation type. Concurrent requests to perform operations of the first operation type on the storage object are processed by each requesting thread based upon, at least in part, the shared write lock associated with the first operation type provided to each requesting thread.
