Managed virtual warehouses for tasks

Abstract:

The subject technology receives a task for executing in a network-based data warehouse system. The subject technology determines a number of execution nodes to execute the task. The subject technology, based on the number of execution nodes, selects a virtual warehouse that includes at least the number of execution nodes. The subject technology sends the task to the virtual warehouse for execution. The subject technology receives an indication that execution of the task is complete. Further, the subject technology provides an indication that the virtual warehouse is idle.
