Resource Governor

Resource Governor

Resource Governor is a feature in SQL Server 2008 that allows you to manage and allocate server resources, such as CPU and memory, among different applications or workloads running on the same instance of SQL Server.

Using Resource Governor, you can set limits on the amount of resources that a particular workload or user can consume, ensuring that other workloads or users on the same instance are not impacted or slowed down. This can be particularly useful in multi-tenant environments or environments where there are multiple applications competing for server resources.

Resource Governor allows you to define resource pools, which are groups of workloads that share a common set of resource limits. You can also define workload groups, which are groups of sessions or requests that are assigned to a particular resource pool.

Within each workload group, you can set limits on the amount of CPU and memory that a particular session or request can consume. You can also set a maximum concurrency limit, which controls the number of requests that can be processed simultaneously. Overall, Resource Governor provides a way to manage and prioritize server resources, ensuring that critical workloads receive the resources they need while preventing less critical workloads from monopolizing resources and impacting overall server performance.
