    Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices for retrying a query. A method includes receiving, by a first database query manager, a query directed to database data from a client account. The method includes assigning an original execution of the query to one or more execution nodes of an execution platform. The method includes determining the original execution of the query was unsuccessful. The method includes transferring the query to a second database query manager configured to manage internal tasks for improving operation of a database platform that are not received from client accounts. The method includes assigning, by the second database query manager, a retry execution of the query to one or more execution nodes of an execution platform.

    Abstract: Provided herein are systems and methods for distributed control plane enablement in a development environment of a database system. A first provisioning request for configuring a control plane environment at a computing node of a database system is decoded. The control plane environment corresponds to a control plane of the database system. A first VM cluster and a second VM cluster are instantiated at the computing node based on the first provisioning request. A cluster manager VM is instantiated within the first VM cluster. The cluster manager VM is configured with at least one control plane management function of the control plane environment. At least one foreground VM is instantiated within the first VM cluster. The at least one foreground VM is configured with at least one query processing function. A query received by the computing node is processed using the at least one query processing function.

    Abstract: Techniques described herein can optimize usage of computing resources in a data system. Dynamic throttling can be performed locally on a computing resource in the foreground and autoscaling can be performed in a centralized fashion in the background. Dynamic throttling can lower the load without overshooting while minimizing oscillation and reducing the throttle quickly. Autoscaling may involve scaling in or out the number of computing resources in a cluster as well as scaling up or down the type of computing resources to handle different types of situations.

    Abstract: Techniques for automated query retry in a database platform include assigning by at least one hardware processor a first execution of a query directed to database data to a first execution node of a plurality of execution nodes of an execution platform. The first execution node uses a first set of configurations during the first execution. The techniques further include determining that the first execution of the query by the first execution node results in a failed execution. The query is transferred to a second execution node of the plurality of execution nodes. A second execution of the query at the second execution node is caused. The second execution node uses a second set of configurations during the second execution. A cause of the failed execution at the first execution node is determined based on a result of the second execution of the query at the second execution node.

    Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices for retrying a query. A method includes receiving a query directed to database data and assigning execution of the query to one or more execution nodes of an execution platform, the one or more execution nodes configured to execute the query on a first version of a database platform. The method includes determining that execution of the query was unsuccessful. The method includes assigning a first retry execution of the query to the one or more execution nodes of the execution platform and determining whether a regression or an intermittent fault caused the execution of the query to be unsuccessful based at least in part on whether the first retry execution of the query was successful or unsuccessful.
