Maybe you might want to separate out your query into multiple queries to get a response sooner and not get the timeout.
The timeout is set as a way to make sure things arent left hanging when querying a DB that may be unreachable or too slow.
Alternatively, you might want to create a script/other procedure in which you take the information you need from the DB you need it and store it to a temporary holding DB that you can then use a normal "Query Data" activity to grab such information. You would be able to set a wait for a metadata field or action to occur before doing the "Query Data" activity and you can have the wait take longer than 10 minutes without fear of an error or warning.
