TRACKING VIRTUAL MACHINE DATA

Abstract:

Disclosed herein are related to a method, a system, and a non-transitory computer readable medium for tracking data objects associated with a virtual machine. In one approach, an object container of the virtual machine is generated. The object container includes data objects associated with the virtual machine. For each of the data objects, a corresponding tag is generated. Each tag is indicative of a corresponding data object. Each tag includes a global identification of the corresponding data object. The global identification is unique across a distributed database. The tags are stored at the distributed database.
