Abstract

Techniques and solutions are provided for performing adaptive database table placement in a non-uniform memory access (NUMA) architecture. The adaptive table placement can occur in response to changing workloads on the NUMA nodes. For example, if a particular NUMA node is saturated, a database table may be moved from the memory of the saturated NUMA node to the memory of another NUMA node that is underutilized. In some cases, an entire database table is moved, while in other cases the database table is partitioned and only part of the table is moved.
