Abstract

Methods, systems, and computer program products are included for the intelligent garbage collection of containers. An example method includes providing a garbage collection data structure, the garbage collection data structure including metadata and one or more resource consumption parameters corresponding to the container. The one or more resource consumption parameters are analyzed by a machine-learning function. Based on the analyzing, the container is classified into one or more classes, the one or more classes including at least one of a suspicious container class, a malicious container class, or a normal container class. Based on the classifying, one or more garbage collection actions are performed on the container, including at least one of generating an alert corresponding to the container or reducing the resource consumption of the container.
