Abstract
In an embodiment of the invention, an apparatus and method for detecting resource consumption and preventing workload starvation, are provided. The apparatus and method perform the acts including: receiving a query; determining if the query will be classified as a resource intense query, based on a number of passes by a cache call over a data blocks set during a time window, where the cache call is associated with the query; and if the query is classified as a resource intense query, then responding to prevent workload starvation.
