title: InnoDB's row locking the same as MVCC Non-Blocking Reads?
body: <p>Is MVCC Non-Blocking Reads the formal name for InnoDB's row locking? I've come across this vocabulary in a <a href="http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/mysql-cluster-ndb-innodb-engines.html" rel="nofollow">comparison table</a> for InnoDB and NDB; I'm not sure whether they're the same thing or something completely different.</p>
