MECHANISM FOR FACILITATING SLIDING WINDOW RESOURCE TRACKING IN MESSAGE QUEUES FOR FAIR MANAGEMENT OF RESOURCES FOR APPLICATION SERVERS IN AN ON-DEMAND SERVICES ENVIRONMENT

In accordance with embodiments, there are provided mechanisms and methods for facilitating sliding window resource tracking in message queues for fair management of resources for application servers in an on-demand services environment. In one embodiment and by way of example, a method includes monitoring, in real-time, in-flight jobs in message queues for incoming jobs from organizations in a distributed environment having application servers in communication over a network, applying local sliding windows to the message queues to estimate wait time associated with each incoming job in a message queue. A local sliding window may include segment of time being monitored in each message queue for estimating the wait time. The method may further include allocating, in real-time, based on the estimated wait time, thread resources to one or more of the incoming jobs associated with the one or more of the organizations.
