Changing the Face of Database Cloud Services with Personalized Service Level Agreements

Summary: Introduce Personalized Service Level Agreements (PSLAs) that hide cloud DBMS resource details and encode per-database performance–cost tradeoffs. Present algorithms to generate and evaluate PSLAs tailored to each user's workload and utility for cost-aware provisioning. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
