Abstract

A mixed workload management system and associated operating method modify a shortest job first (SJF) by service levels. The workload management system comprises a scheduler configured for scheduling mixed workloads. The scheduler comprises an analyzer that determines query execution time, assigns scheduling priority to a query in order inverse to the query execution time, weights the assigned scheduling priority by service level of the query, and sorts a list of queries in order of weighted scheduling priority. A schedule controller selects a query for execution from head of the sorted list of queries.
