摘要:
In a method, computer program and process for administering the workload of a database system as it executes one or more requests the one or more requests are sorted into one or more workload groups. Each workload group has an associated level of service desired from the database system. The one or more requests are executed in an order intended to achieve the levels of service associated with each of the workload groups. The system resources are assigned to the one or more workload groups as necessary to provide the level of service associated with each workload group. The execution of requests is monitored on a short-term basis to detect a deviation from the level of service greater than a short-term threshold. If such a deviation is detected, the assignment of system resources to workload groups is adjusted to reduce the deviation. Monitoring is also performed on a long-term basis to detect deviations from the expected level of service greater than a long-term threshold. If such a deviation is detected, the execution of requests is adjusted to better provide the expected level of service.
摘要:
Processing of a request is optimized. The request has one or more predicates. A list of the one or more predicates in the request is created and predicates for which an actual cost has not been stored or for which a cost cannot be estimated are pruned from the list. An access path for the each of the predicates is selected. The request is processed using the selected access paths producing one or more actual predicate costs. The one or more actual predicate costs are stored.
摘要:
A computer-implemented system, method and article of manufacture for managing a plurality of database systems in a domain, wherein each of the database systems are managed by one or more closed-loop system management (CLSM) regulators. A virtual regulator manages the domain, wherein the virtual regulator communicates with the CLSM regulators to monitor the database systems' system conditions and operating environment events within the domain and to provide for dynamic query optimization between the database systems within in the domain based on the system conditions and operating environment events.
摘要:
A method, computer program and database system are disclosed for guiding the development of workload group definition (WD) classifications for a database system having resources. WD classification information is provided where a workload group is a set of system requests having characteristics defined by a WD and a WD classification identifies one or more WDs with similar performance requirements. If WD classification is not acceptable, one or more of the following functions is performed until WD classification is acceptable: (a) splitting one or more WDs; and (b) merging two or more WDs.
摘要:
A request is received at a computer programmed as a database system. The request is a request selected from the group consisting of a query and a utility. A business concept is associated with the request. The business concept is a business concept selected from the group consisting of “who” information defining the source of the request, “what” information defining the processing to be performed by the request, “where” information defining a database object that the request will affect. The computer maps the received request to a database feature setting by mapping the business concept associated with the request to a workload. The workload is defined by a workload definition including a workload classification attribute that maps to the business concept of the request, a workload throttling attribute that defines conditions under which requests assigned to the workload are throttled. Submission of the request to the database system for processing is delayed based on the workload definition.

A method, computer program, and database system are disclosed for identifying a second source of a request sent to a database management system by a first source. A database message is received from the first source. The database message includes a second value for a second source-identifying parameter. The second value identifies a second source. The second value for the second source-identifying parameter is stored in a log.
摘要:
A method, system and computer program for mapping business concepts related to the processing of requests on a database system to database system feature settings is disclosed. Rules limit the requests that will be submitted to the database system for processing and establish workload definitions that can be used to map each request submitted to the database system for processing to database feature settings, based on business concepts associated with each request.
摘要:
A method, computer program and system for regulating the workload of a database system as it processes one or more requests are disclosed. The requests are grouped into workload groups and are processed by one or more of a plurality of subsystems within the database system. Each subsystem has resources. The system has resources. The subsystem resources and the system resources are allocated across the workload groups. The method, computer program and system include monitoring, at a subsystem level, the processing of the requests and adjusting the allocation of subsystem resources to workload groups to achieve a subsystem goal and monitoring, at a system level, the processing of the requests and adjusting the allocation of system resources to workload groups to achieve a system goal. The subsystems are arranged in a hierarchical network. The method includes each subsystem reporting through the hierarchy of the network the consumption level of its resources and each subsystem reporting through the hierarchy of the network the consumption level of the resources of other subsystems reporting to it according to the hierarchy.

A closed-loop supportability system for a database system includes a system health check administrator to allow the definition of supportability service level goals, a supportability regulator to regulate the execution of the database system to attempt to achieve the supportability service level goals, a supportability monitor to provide real-time views of the database system performance against the supportability rules, and a supportability correlator to provide analysis of the database system performance against the supportability rules.
