Abstract
Processing batch database workload while avoiding overload. A method for efficiently processing a database workload in a computer system comprises receiving the workload, which comprises a batch of queries directed toward the database. Each query within the batch of queries is assigned a priority. Resources of the computer system are assigned in accordance with the priority. The batch of queries is executed in unison within the computer system in accordance with the priority of each query thereby resolving a conflict within the batch of queries for the resources of the computer system, hence efficiently processing the database workload and avoiding overload of the computer system.
