Abstract

A microservice executing in a distributed computing system may receive a request to delete a target object stored in the distributed computing system. The microservice may identify dependent objects for the target object using information received in the request. The microservice may generate a new object that includes the data from the target object and the data from the one or more dependent objects. The new object may be stored in the distributed computing system, and the target object may be removed from the distributed computing system.
