Abstract

A system for data management includes a root object, zero, one, or more member objects, and a processor. The root object is associated with a garbage collection root metadata. Each of the one or more member objects is associated with a garbage collection member metadata. The root object has a direct relation or an indirect relation to each of the one or more member objects. The processor is to determine that an object is the root object; determine whether the root object and the one or more member objects are to be garbage collected; and garbage collect the root object and the one or more member objects in the event that the root object and the one or more member objects are to be garbage collected.
