Data Retention

The monitoring data is collected in rib-<app> repositories and a central repository in the functional artifact app. These are in-memory repositories. The information in the repositories is lost when the application is restarted. Additionally, the repositories are not purged, so the data collects as long as the applications run. The monitoring data is collected in hourly buckets. There can only be a maximum of 24 records per day. This strategy reduces the chances of the system going out of memory.
