Lock release management in a distributed system

A system, comprising:

• at least one memory that stores computer executable components;
• and at least one processor that executes computer executable components stored in the at least one memory, wherein the computer executable components comprise:
• a node of a distributed network of nodes;
• and an access manager that, with regard to a section of a file written or being written to, and stored, in the node, analyzes file-related data indicative of a status associated with the section of the file, and, based on a result of the analysis of the file-related data, determines whether to switch from a first data lock associated with the section of the file to a second data lock with respect to the section of the file wherein, based on the result, the access manager determines that a write pattern associated with the write of the section of the file to the node is a streaming write pattern and that the write of the section of the file to the node is finished, and wherein, based on determining that the write pattern is the streaming write pattern and that the write of the section of the file to the node is finished, the access manager determines that the first data lock associated with the section of the file is to be switched to the second data lock with respect to the section of the file.

A non-transitory machine-readable medium, comprising executable instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:

• with regard to a write operation to write a section of a file to a node device of a distributed network of node devices, evaluating file-related data indicative of a status associated with the writing of the section of the file to the node device;
• determining whether to change an exclusive data lock mode associated with the section of the file to a shared data lock mode with respect to the section of the file based on a result of the evaluating of the file-related data;
• based on the result, determining that a write pattern associated with the writing of the section of the file to the node device is not a streaming write pattern, or is the streaming write pattern with the writing of the section of the file to the node device not being completed;
• and based on the determining that the write pattern is not the streaming write pattern, or is the streaming write pattern with the writing of the section of the file to the node device not being completed, determining that the exclusive data lock mode associated with the section of the file is not to be changed to the shared data lock mode with respect to the section of the file.
