Abstract
Systems and methods are presented for auto-starting and auto-stopping databases in a cloud server environment. In some embodiments, a method includes accessing, by an initial server in a network-based system, a request to connect to a target database located in a target server of the network-based system. The method can include determining, by an administrative database residing in the initial server, a location of the target database residing in the target server, switching an execution context from no database in the target server to a copy of the administrative database in the target server, performing an auto-start procedure to auto-start the target database in the target server, switching the execution context from the administrative database in the target server to the target database in the target server, and transmitting a completion acknowledgement indicating the target server is connected to the target database.
