Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for instrumentation and control of workloads in a massively parallel processing database. Deployment is in a cluster which mirrors the cluster of the database to be controlled. The system includes data publishing modules, action agents, rules processing modules, deployment managers, rule compilation and management tools. Together these provide a distributed, fault tolerant system for the automated rules-based control of work in a database cluster. A rule specifies an action on the system and a condition for performing the action, the condition including a value, one or more tags corresponding to the value, and a relation between the one or more tags and the value. The system triggers the action based on evaluating the condition.
