Even though we didn't have a big need of going way back, it might be useful for some more high-level data like what flight_recorder or an SLI runner could give us.

Regarding disk, at the moment we're at a constant 20% utilization:
My guess is that going up in terms of retention would proportionally make this grow.

Hey,
At the moment, the
metricsPrometheus server is configured with a retention policy that allows us to store only 15d of data:Which, having a default of
15dwhen0(see https://prometheus.io/docs/prometheus/latest/storage/), means that we end up being able to go back a max of 15d.Even though we didn't have a big need of going way back, it might be useful for some more high-level data like what
flight_recorderor an SLI runner could give us.--
