Tracing supervisor for UDFs in a database system

Provided herein are systems and methods for tracing and tracing supervision of UDFs in a database system. For example, a method includes receiving a user-defined function (UDF), the UDF including code related to at least one operation to be performed. A user code runtime is instantiated to execute the code of the UDF as a child process. The user code runtime includes a filtering process configured with a plurality of filtering policies.
