  • Publication number: 20260119497
    Abstract: A latency-oriented Service Level Optimization system for multi-tenant databases. Latency's negative effect on Quality of Service is expressed in terms of a latency impact function to provide a latency impact-oriented SLO-guaranteed system that enables a database system to support multi-tenant latency-impact targets in a cost-effective fashion. In contrast to traditional latency management based on percentile guarantees, the present invention manages latency based on the latency probability density function for all latency values. Cost-effective management is attained through latency impact-oriented capacity planning and real-time latency impact target enforcement. The capacity planning estimates the feasibility of latency-impact targets while the target enforcement tracks and regulates the per-connection query latency distribution needed for accurate latency-impact target guarantee, avoiding both under-provisioning and over-provisioning.
