A future workload may be predicted for a database system using analysis of queries submitted for execution. A feature vector for a query may be determined according to a query plan for the query. If the feature vector has not been previously seen, or has not been sufficiently seen, by the database system, a machine learning inference may be used to predict performance characteristics of the query, the machine learning system trained using previous feature vectors and performance characteristics of executed queries. If the feature vector has been sufficiently seen previously by the database system, a history of performance characteristics of previous queries with similar or the same feature vector may be used to predict the performance characteristics. The predictions may then be used to configure or reconfigure processing cluster(s) of the database system.
