Retention Policies

The retention policies (Admin / Global Configurations / 01 Backup Policies )

WIP Active retention policies set the frequency and the number of backups to keep during a defined period. When this period ends, older backups are deleted.

WIP Active uses retention policies to preserve backed up data for a certain period of time. There are different policies for both the published applications and the in-development applications. When this period ends, older backups are deleted.

 

For example for Published Apps we keep

  • one backup per day for 6 days

  • then one backup per week for 3 weeks

  • then one backup per month for 11 months

  • then one backup per year for 4 years

  • then after 5 years without changes the app is deleted
