Techniques for secure and efficient interfacing with a cloud computing service are described. In an embodiment, a cloud computing management service is programmed or configured to communicate with a cloud computing service. The cloud computing management service can be accessed by software engineers that are looking to deploy a software instance to a computing device of the cloud computing service. Thus, the cloud computing management service acts as an intermediary layer in front of the cloud computing service. In an embodiment, the cloud computing management service may store one or more frequently-used system parameters for deployment of software instances. The parameters conform to company's security protocols, compliance protocols, and/or other standards.

Apparatus and method of securely and efficiently interfacing with a cloud computing service

A fair scheduling system with methodology for scheduling queries for execution by a database management system in a fair manner. The system obtains query jobs for execution by the database management system and cost estimates to execute the query jobs. Based on the cost estimates, the system causes the database management system to execute the query jobs as separate sub-query tasks in a round-robin fashion. By doing so, the execution latency of low cost query jobs that return few results is reduced when the query jobs are concurrently executed with high cost query jobs that return many results.

Fair scheduling for mixed-query loads

A fair scheduling system with methodology for fairly scheduling queries for execution by a database management system. The system obtains query jobs for execution by the database management system and cost estimates to execute the query jobs. The cost estimate can be a number of results the query is expected to return. Based on the cost estimates, the system causes the database management system to execute the query jobs as separately sub-query tasks in a round-robin fashion. By doing so, the execution latency of 'low cost' query jobs that return few results is reduced when the query jobs are concurrently executed with 'high cost' query jobs that return a large number of results.

A fair scheduling system with methodology for fairly scheduling queries for execution by a database management system is disclosed. The techniques involve obtaining computer-executable query jobs and cost estimates to execute the query jobs. For example, the cost estimate can be a number of results the query is expected to return. Based on the cost estimates, the fair scheduling system causes the database management system to execute the query jobs as separately executable sub-query tasks in a round-robin fashion which can decrease latency of low cost queries concurrently executing with high cost queries.
