# [Optimistic Lock](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optimistic_concurrency_control) Using Hooks
In this example, we implement an optimistic locking mechanism using an `ent.Hook`.
The idea is to add to our schema a `version` field that holds the Unix time of when the latest update occurred.
When an `UpdateOne` operation is executed, the hook updates the `version` field with the new value and adds a predicate
to verify that the `version` wasn't updated by another process/transaction during the mutation.
An error is returned if the versions are mismatched, and the user should reload the entity and retry the mutation.
