Abstract

A computer system executes a database management system (DBMS). The DBMS manages a database comprised of DBMS resources. The DBMS receives a request to be executed. The request is a DBMS action to be executed using the DBMS resources. The request includes a predicate specifying a maximum cost for executing the request, and a deadline, specifying a deadline by which the request is to be completed in its execution. The DBMS determines a plurality of workloads under which the request is qualified to execute. Each workload of the plurality of workloads includes a respective set of requests that have common characteristics. Each workload of the plurality of workloads includes a respective cost criterion and a respective elapsed time criterion. The DBMS selects a selected workload from among the plurality of workloads. The selected workload has a selected cost criterion and a selected elapsed time criterion. The DBMS begins execution of the request using the selected workload.
