Thanks Jeff,
I just checked with business and we have differences in having TTL. So it will be manula purging always. We do not want to use LCS due to high IOs. So: 1. As the use case is of time series data model, TWCS will be give some benefit (without TTL) and with frequent deleted data 2. Are there any best practices/recommendations to handle high number of tombstones 3. Can we handle this use case with STCS also (with some configurations) Thanks in advance Adarsh Kumar On Fri, Oct 18, 2019 at 11:46 AM Jeff Jirsa <jji...@gmail.com> wrote: > Is everything in the table TTL’d? > > Do you do explicit deletes before the data is expected to expire ? > > Generally speaking, gcgs exists to prevent data resurrection.
