Abstract
A method for processing a database query includes receiving a database query to be executed according to a first processing profile and determining whether the database query is likely to be an ad hoc query. The determining of whether the database query is likely to be an ad hoc query is based on a factor. The factor can include a query originator factor, a job type factor, a run history factor, or a query quality factor. A second processing profile is generated before executing the database query in response to determining that the database query is likely to be an ad hoc query. The second processing profile is configured to limit performance impacts, such as by providing a lower execution priority, prohibiting parallel database operations, limiting memory allocation, or delaying or blocking the query.
