Add data pruning options #47

Open Jchase2 opened 1 year ago

With the amount of data we're creating, we'll need configurable options for how much data to keep before pruning it and what not.

This may get added later, but I've added 2.5ish years of fake data to a server and measured the DB size. It only comes out to about 60mb. So presumably for 1000 servers you'd have less than 60GB stored assuming they're all running and recording with the optional backend installed on each server.

Since that doesn't seem like much of an issue, and DB admins can always manually prune, this issue is being removed from the alpha and is not currently a priority. In the future if/when I develop an "admin panel" and different user levels, this will probably be more useful.
