Q2. What is an optimistic locking ?

Database

Ans. It's the way for synchronization wherein we can store version information in the table , so that if the same entity is updated by two transactions, the last to commit changes is informed of the conflict, and does not override the other transaction's work.

Q3. What could be the possible cause for following exception ?

org.hibernate.StaleObjectStateException: Row was updated or deleted by another transaction (or unsaved-value mapping was incorrect):

What could be the way to fix it ?

Hibernate

Ans. This looks like the case for optimistic locking wherein hibernate suspects that the information in table was updated by some other transaction after the entity was loaded by current transaction.

One way is to have synchronized entity state and don't detach the entity. Other could be to merge the entity with the table record rather than just directly persisting the entity.
