1. A method of determining whether multiple incremental changes to a data field could pass a threshold, comprising: receiving at least one threshold related to a data field; receiving a request to incrementally modify a data value of the data field, wherein the request to incrementally modify the data value of the data field comprises an incremental value associated with the data field and an operation type that indicates whether the request is to increment a possible value for the data field or to decrement the possible value for the data field; determining, via execution of instructions by at least one processor, whether the request, in combination with a subset of other pending requests to incrementally modify the data value, could pass the at least one threshold; and computing an updated boundary value of the possible value for the data field, wherein the possible value for the data field is based on the request and a previous boundary value, the previous boundary value determined from a subset of other pending requests to modify the data value.
