Abstract

Example resource management systems and methods are described. In one implementation, a resource manager is to be coupled to one or more virtual data warehouse instances that each comprise a plurality of computing resources. A resource manager receives a query directed to database data. The resource manager determines a task associated with the query. The resource manager distributes the task to a first virtual data warehouse instance of the plurality of virtual data warehouse instances. The resource manager determines that the first virtual data warehouse instance of the plurality of virtual data warehouse instances no longer accesses the database data. The resource manager reconfigures the first virtual data warehouse instance to delete a communication between the first virtual data warehouse instance and the database.
