Abstract
Excess capacity of a database system can be used for learning activities in a controlled computing environment. In this context, excess capacity of a database system can be used as needed and/or on a temporary basis. Furthermore, learning activities can be performed without requiring the use of the capacity that is configured or has been allotted for various other database operations, including those deemed, especially by the users of database system, to serve a main function or a more important purpose. As a result, learning can be performed without adversely affecting other operations deemed to be more critical, especially by the users of databases. Learning activities associated with a database environment can, for example, include learning operations directed to optimization of database queries, for example, by using a basic feedback or an expanded or active learning.
