Abstract

A virtual regulator monitors and manages a plurality of database systems in a domain. Each of the database systems is tuned for a particular type of workload, and the virtual regulator or multiple virtual regulators running in parallel routes a set of one or more queries to a particular database system within the domain based on a cost function for each database system.
