Techniques for automated query retry in a database platform include assigning by at least one hardware processor a first execution of a query directed to database data to a first execution node of a plurality of execution nodes of an execution platform. The first execution node uses a first set of configurations during the first execution. The techniques further include determining that the first execution of the query by the first execution node results in a failed execution. The query is transferred to a second execution node of the plurality of execution nodes. A second execution of the query at the second execution node is caused. The second execution node uses a second set of configurations during the second execution. A cause of the failed execution at the first execution node is determined based on a result of the second execution of the query at the second execution node.
