## What is Standalone GC?

Standalone GC is a simplified version of the Spark-backed GC that runs without any external dependencies, delivered as a standalone
docker image. It supports S3 and [self-managed S3 compatible storages](#s3-compatible-clients) such as MinIO.
docker image. It supports S3 and [self-managed S3 compatible storages](#using-s3-compatible-clients) such as MinIO.

## Limitations

1. **No horizontal scalability**: Only a single instance of `lakefs-sgc` can operate on a given repository at a time.
2. **Mark phase only**: Standalone GC supports only the mark phase, identifying objects for deletion but not executing
the sweep stage to delete them. It functions similarly to the GC's [mark-only mode]({% link howto/garbage-collection/gc.md %}#mark-only-mode).
3. Only supports AWS S3 and S3-compatible object storages. However, supporting Azure blob and GCS are in our roadmap.
