   Yep, lots of tricks (often proprietary to the particular app)

   "Database engines" are just a more user-transparent approach
   to the semaphores/messages/queues/locks/etc. They all still
   DO it, it's just a bit "under the hood".

   If you need to write your own DB, even if quite simple, then
   YOU have to ensure at least file-level, preferably record-level,
   concurrency protections.
