LEARNING CAPACITY BY USING EXCESS CAPACITY IN A CAPACITY CONTROLLED ENVIRONMENT
First Claim
1. A method, implemented at least partly by a device, for learning by using excess capacity of a database system configured to operate at a limited capacity below its full capacity, wherein the database system includes one or more processors operable to process data stored in the database in a database environment, and wherein the method comprises:
- allowing at least a portion of the excess capacity available to the database system to be used to perform one or more learning activities associated with learning about the database environment.

Abstract
Excess capacity of a database system can be used for learning activities in a controlled computing environment. In this context, excess capacity of a database system can be used as needed and/or on a temporary basis. Furthermore, learning activities can be performed without requiring the use of the capacity that is configured or has been allotted for various other database operations, including those deemed, especially by the users of database system, to serve a main function or a more important purpose. As a result, learning can be performed without adversely affecting other operations deemed to be more critical, especially by the users of databases. Learning activities associated with a database environment can, for example, include learning operations directed to optimization of database queries, for example, by using a basic feedback or an expanded or active learning.
