Thanks for sharing your feedback!
Good question! Skylight performance analytics offers the capability to retain varying levels of data granularity for different time periods.
Granularities
Incoming data is aggregated into pre-set intervals to improve query performance and support longer data retention. The following are the pre-set intervals:
- Raw or Full granularity as received from the data source
- 1 minute
- 15 minute
- 1 hour
- 1 day (only available for capture per packet intel data, not 3rd party or session PM data)
Default Retention Periods
Accedian's Sensor: capture produces performance data from packet analysis, and can have different data retention settings from the session performance data from Accedian's other sensors and 3rd party sources.
| Data Type | Production | Proof of Value / Trial |
|---|---|---|
| Capture flows | Full : 30 days 1 minute : 30 days 15 minutes : 90 days 1 hour : 1 year 24 hours : 4 years | Full : 9 days 1 minute : 9 days 15 minutes : 9 days 1 hour : 36 days 24 hours : 144 days |
| Session / Third Party | 1 minute : 90 days 15 minutes : 180 days (upon request) 1 hour : 1 year (upon request) | 1 minute : 30 days |
Caveats
The above retention periods are:
- only applicable when hosted by Accedian
- subject to change at Accedian's discretion
Retention periods can be adjusted to suit the customer's needs, but may be subject to additional fees.
