I cannot tell you about MySQL, but if you insert two rows at the same time in PostgreSQL, the SQL queries run from the trigger can run concurrently. None of them will see the row of the other insert, because this will become only visible when the transaction (which includes the execution trigger) has completed. > I will follow your suggestion.

There is no need to add a new column, just add a constraint. If the table was defined with a varchar column like this: CREATE TABLE network (id integer PRIMARY KEY, subnet varchar(30) NOT NULL); Add the following constraint: ALTER TABLE network ADD CONSTRAINT network_subnet_excl EXCLUDE USING gist ((subnet::cidr) inet_ops WITH &&); Then you are done.
