Abstract

The subject technology selects a most recently created file from a set of files stored in a source table. The subject technology iterates, in the source table, starting from the most recently created file up to an age threshold to select a first set of files for performing a first defragmentation process. The subject technology sets an indication corresponding to a particular file that is a last file, from the first set of files, that meets the age threshold. The subject technology performs the first defragmentation process on the selected first set of files. The subject technology determines that the first defragmentation process was successful.
