Storage

Control Plane tools for defaults and configuring how your telemetry data is stored and re-used.

Sampling, Tiering, and Retention​

  1. Sampling: Last9 applies no sampling on your data to ensure an accurate representation of your system's health.
  2. Data Tiering: Last9 offers automated data tiering by default for your metrics data, including ones generated by the traces-to-metric and logs-to-metric pipelines.
    • Blaze Tier: Last 2 hours
    • Hot Tier: Last 28 days
    • Cold Tier: As per your Cold Storage
  3. Retention: Metrics data is retained for 28 days by default with cold storage for backup. Logs and Traces data is retained for 14 days with cold storage for backup and on-demand rehydration.

Cold Storage​

Control Plane

For your logs and traces, Last9 currently offers an integration with your AWS S3 bucket to store data older than 15 days. This data will be available for on-demand rehydration to run queries and report on.

Read the Cold Storage guide for more details.

Rehydration​

The historical logs can be rehydrated for later consumption as needed. You can rehydrate based on a time range filter.

Additionally for live debugging use cases, Last9 performs automatic rehydration of logs upto 10M log lines when the requested time range is beyond the retention period.
