what is ConcurrentDictionary?

ConcurrentDictionary is one of five collection classes introduced in .NET 4.0. It exists in System.Collections.Concurrent namespace.ConcurrentDictionary is thread-safe collection class to store key/value pairs. ConcurrentDictionary can be used with multiple threads concurrently.
