Hi, 

Was looking for the Best Practice's to purge few logged properties which are logged in the InfluxDB ValueStream,  found a Article .

and saw the below Comment in the Article:

this means InfluxDB data in Value Streams shouldn't get purged ?

Thanks,

@pshashipreetham CS271772 means purging data consumes influxDB greately so it may cause performace issue if you perform query/insert at the same time. For example, some data will not be logged to influxDB or query service will time out for no responding.

    >>deleting data which would need to rewrite all of the shards and would become slow/unresponsive for query/insert operations

 

However if you do need purging data, we suggest to do it when there are few or no query/insert oeprations so the business will not be affected.
