Garbage Collection in Java | What is GC and How does it Work in the JVM? | Types of GCs | Geekific

Discord Community: https://discord.gg/dK6cB24ATp GitHub Repository: https://github.com/geekific-official/ Java programs compile into bytecode that can be run on a Java Virtual Machine. When Java programs run on the JVM, objects are created in the heap space, which is a portion of memory dedicated to the program. Inside this space, and over the lifetime of a Java application, new objects are created and released. The process of automatically reclaiming unused memory by destroying unused objects is referred to as Garbage Collection. In this video we attempt to explain how GC works and what are the types of GC available.
