Summary

SingleStoreDB Self-Managed 6.5 introduces workload management to handle unpredictable spikes in queries while maintaining high performance during normal loads. This feature uses detection, prediction, and management components to identify struggling nodes, estimate resource usage of queries, and admit queries in three tiers based on memory consumption and expected runtime. By enabling workload management, SingleStoreDB can provide a slight improvement in latency under normal concurrency, improve scalability, and mitigate the impact of concurrency spikes by limiting key resource-intensive queries until the node has recovered to a normal load. The feature is designed to make SingleStore not only the world's best database but also the easiest database to use.
