Workload request rate control

A data store system may include a storage device configured to store a plurality of data store tables and may include a processor in communication with the storage device. The processor may receive a plurality of requests. For each request, the processor may: (1) determine an associated workload type for the request; (2) determine a first respective rate at which the request is to be released for scheduling of execution; and (3) release the request for scheduling of execution based on the first respective rate. For each released request, the processor may: (1) determine a second respective rate based on the associated workload type at which each released request is scheduled to be executed; and (2) in response to execution being scheduled for a released request, execute the released request. A method and computer-readable medium are also disclosed.
