Data Lifecycle

Manage how long data lives in Arc: retention windows, WHERE-clause deletes that rewrite Parquet files, and continuous queries that downsample into materialized views.

These features control what happens to data after it lands. In Arc OSS each one is triggered through the API; scheduled execution is an Arc Enterprise feature.

Retention policies

Define retention windows per database or measurement.

Delete operations

Remove rows with a WHERE predicate by rewriting Parquet files.

Continuous queries

Downsample high-frequency data into materialized views.

Decimal Precision

Declare native Decimal128 columns with ARC_INGEST_DECIMAL_COLUMNS so financial and scientific values keep exact precision instead of being coerced to float64.
