Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a system and techniques for resolving dangling references resulting from a dependency relationship between computing resource objects uncovered during a harvesting process. In embodiments, a harvester application adds computing resource objects associated with a client to a resource collection as those computing resource objects are identified. Dependencies are identified as each computing resource object is added to the resource collection, which are resolved only if the computing resource objects associated with those dependencies have already been added to the resource collection. If the computing resource objects associated with the dependencies have not already been added to the resource collection, then the dependency is added to an observer pool. Observer modules are configured to check each computing resource object as it is processed during the harvest process in order to match those computing resource objects to unresolved dependencies.
