Abstract
An improved workload management system and method for a database system. The improved workload management system evaluates certain workload management rules dynamically at key points during database query execution rather than relying on enforcement prior to query activation. In the case of product join operations, the workload management system evaluates the potential impact on system performance by the product join operation after input tables have been populated, but prior to the execution of the join operation. Delaying workload management enforcement to this point ensures that the sizes of inputs and outputs are reliably known and improves system performance impact estimates at a point early enough to prevent any serious performance degradation from an inefficient product join.
