Workload management for cloud databases must deal with the tasks of resource provisioning, query placement and query scheduling in a manner that meets the application's performance goals while minimizing the cost of using cloud resources. Existing solutions have approached these three challenges in isolation, and with only a particular type of performance goal in mind. In this paper, we introduce WiSeDB, a learning-based framework for generating holistic workload management solutions customized to application-defined performance metrics and workload characteristics. Our approach relies on supervised learning to train cost-effective decision tree models for guiding query placement, scheduling, and resource provisioning decisions. Applications can use these models for both batch and online scheduling of incoming workloads. A unique feature of our system is that it can adapt its offline model to stricter/looser performance goals with minimal re-training. This allows us to present alternative workload management strategies that address the typical performance vs. cost trade-off of cloud services. Experimental results show that our approach has very low training overhead while offering low cost strategies for a variety of performance goals and workload characteristics.
