Abstract: Intelligent memory brokering for multiple process instances, such as relational databases (e.g., SQL servers), reclaims memory based on value, thereby minimizing cost across instances. An exemplary solution includes: based at least on a trigger event, determining a memory profile for each of a plurality of process instances at a computing node; determining an aggregate memory profile, the aggregate memory profile indicating a memory unit cost for each of a plurality of memory units; determining a count of memory units to be reclaimed; identifying, based at least on the aggregate memory profile and the count of memory units to be reclaimed, a count of memory units to be reclaimed within each process instance so that a total cost is minimized to reclaim the determined count; and communicating, to each process instance having identified memory units to be reclaimed, a count of memory units to be reclaimed within the process instance.

Abstract: Techniques for differential overbooking on a cloud database. These techniques may include determining a reservation amount of a multi-tenant resource for a first service of a based upon an overbooking characteristic of the first service, and determining that a total usage value of the multi-tenant resource by a plurality of services is greater than a threshold value. In addition, the techniques may include determining a service usage value of the multi-tenant resource by the first service, determining a first overage value of the first service based on the service usage value and the reservation amount, and performing a resource reclamation process over the multi-tenant resource based on the first overage value of the first service.

Abstract: A solution is disclosed for memory management of serverless databases that includes: based at least on detecting a trigger event, determining whether memory is to be reclaimed; based at least on determining that memory is to be reclaimed, determining an amount of memory to be reclaimed; identifying memory to be reclaimed; and reclaiming the identified memory. Disclosed solutions are flexible, enabling customization of the aggressiveness and manner of memory reclamation. This permits users to specify a tailored balance point between performance and cost, for arrangements that bill users based on resource usage (e.g., memory consumed by a serverless database). In some examples, users specify a ramp-down parameter that is used to determine how much memory can be evicted in a particular reclamation event, time intervals (or another criteria) for triggering a reclamation event, and a definition for whether a cache is active.

Abstract: Described herein are technologies relating to computing resource allocation among multiple tenants. Each tenant may have a respective absolute reservation for rate-based computing resources, which is independent of computing resource reservations of other tenants. The multiple tenants vie for the rate-based computing resources, and tasks are scheduled based upon which tenants submit the tasks and the resource reservations of such tenants.

Abstract: This patent application relates to granular and workload driven database index defragmentation techniques. These techniques allow for defragmenting individual index ranges, performing benefit analysis to estimate the impact of defragmenting indexes or index ranges, and leveraging such benefit analysis to provide automated workload-driven recommendations of index(es) or index range(s) to defragment.

Abstract: The subject disclosure is directed towards defragmenting one or more ranges of a database index based upon actual usage statistics and policy. A range tracker tracks and uses statistics corresponding to actual I/O operations to determine whether the benefit of defragmenting a range sufficiently (based upon the policy) exceeds its cost. If so, the online range defragmenter automatically defragments the range in an online manner. The range tracker may be configurable to monitor less than all ranges of the index.
