Autonomously resolves database hangs and deadlocks

A database hangs when a session blocks a chain of one or more sessions. The blocking session holds a resource such as a lock or latch that prevents the blocked sessions from progressing. The chain of sessions has a root or a final blocker session, which blocks all the other sessions in the chain. Hang Manager resolves these issues autonomously by detecting and resolving the hangs.
