etcd Concurrency API is one of 10 APIs that [Etcd](https://apis.io/providers/etcd/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include Concurrency, Coordination, Distributed Locking, and Leader Election. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation and an API reference.

The etcd concurrency API provides distributed primitives built on top of the core key-value store, including distributed mutexes (locks), leader election, and software transactional memory (STM). These primitives are used to coordinate between distributed processes and implement consensus patterns in clustered applications.
