Abstract
A system and method for balancing database workload in a cloud database system employing multiple database instances, wherein intermediate results are shared between database instances via object store or cloud storage system accessible by the multiple database instances. During sharing of intermediate results between database instances having different node sizes or processing unit sizes, load balancing is achieved by evaluating the target and source database instance sizes to select an appropriate load balancing strategy. Data and metadata contained within the intermediate results shared between source and target database instances are organized to provide optimal load balancing on the target database instance.
