Where is the object stored in java?

Whenever an object is created in java, it gets storage space in heap.

Heap is created when JVM starts. And it increases or decreases in size as per the requirement while the application runs.

At times when heap space becomes full or approaches to be full, the garbage collection starts.

Heap can be divided into two generations:

  • nursery
  • old space
