Amazon RDS for SQL Server

Amazon RDS for SQL Server now supports resource governor, a feature that optimizes database performance by managing how different workloads consume compute resources. This allows customers to prevent resource-intensive queries from impacting critical workloads, implement predictable performance in multi-tenant environments, and efficiently manage resource allocation during peak usage periods.

Resource governor is available with SQL Server Enterprise Edition in all AWS Regions where Amazon RDS for SQL Server is available. Customers can use stored procedures to configure resource pools, workload groups, and classifier functions.
