Abstract
Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for identifying and removing orphan data in a Database-as-a-Service (DBaaS) cloud computing platform. In embodiments, a workflow is executed that accesses an event service database of the platform to obtain a list of deleted customer entities, queries a control plane of the platform to obtain a list of existing DBaaS instances, determines that a particular existing DBaaS instance is associated with a particular deleted customer entity, identifies the particular existing DBaaS instance as a potential orphan DBaaS instance, validates that the particular existing DBaaS instance is an orphan DBaaS instance, and in response to validating that the particular existing DBaaS instance is an orphan DBaaS instance, performs one or more of generating an alert that identifies the particular existing DBaaS instance as an orphan DBaaS instance or removing the particular existing DBaaS instance from the DBaaS cloud computing platform.
