We have been using Aeropsike exentsively as key-value store only. However now I couldn't find a way to actually save a lock in Aeropspike like the way we do in Redis.
I guess, I can always save native application lock as blobs, but that means I will be limited to a particular implementation in my application.
Don't believe you can "save" locks in Aerospike. Any form of locking has to be implemented at the Application level and then you have to deal with the locking client abandoning the lock.
