Optimizing Eventstreams and Eventhouses

“

Now, in the event stream, we can benefit from setting both the data retentions and also throughput optimization. Now let's look at throughput optimization first. We can set the event stream at three different levels of throughput, low, medium, and high. Now, once we've upgraded a throughput optimization, let's say we've gone from low to medium, we can't actually downgrade that throughput optimization. If we look at the data retention period, we can configure that between 1 and 90 days for the event stream. Now, 90 days is an awful long time to keep data in an event stream. The shorter the retention time possible, the better. And in fact, the default is one day. So if you do not take your events off the event stream within one day, you will lose those event stream events unless you increase the data retention. But that also increases storage and cost. Now, in terms of ingestion configuration on an event stream, we can actually configure a direct ingestion straight into an event house…
