A system and methodology providing workload management in a database cluster. In one embodiment, for example, a method for allocating workload amongst a plurality of database servers sharing access to data comprises steps of: periodically collecting information about workload at each database server; distributing the workload information to each of the plurality of database servers; in response to a client connected to a first database server requesting that work be performed, examining the workload information to determine whether the requested work should be performed at a second database server having a lower workload than the first database server; if it is determined that the work should be performed at the second database server, automatically transferring the client connection to the second database server and performing the requested work at the second database server; and otherwise, performing the requested work at the first database server. |
