Abstract

Methods and apparatus for storage object deletion job management are disclosed. A storage medium stores program instructions that when executed on a processor, identify, during a particular deletion execution iteration, a particular deletion job object stored at a multi-tenant storage service, wherein the particular deletion job object indicates a collection of storage objects that are eligible for deletion from the storage service in accordance with specified deletion criteria. The instructions determine, based on a job validity criterion, whether deletion operations corresponding to the particular deletion job object of the one or more deletion job objects are to be scheduled. If the job object is validated, the instructions initiate a deletion operation for storage objects indicated in the particular deletion job object.
