How long does SaaS retain one-time diagnostics performed by OneAgent?

OneAgent's one-time diagnostics data is retained for 30 days in a SaaS environment. This retention period allows users sufficient time to analyze and act on the diagnostic information collected by OneAgent without overwhelming them with historical data. By keeping the data for this duration, Dynatrace ensures that users can troubleshoot and optimize their applications effectively during a relevant time frame while also managing storage and performance considerations.

Retaining this data for too long could create unnecessary overhead and complicate data management, which is why a period of 30 days strikes an appropriate balance. This timeframe supports effective monitoring and performance assessments while also aligning with the practices of many cloud-based observability tools, which aim to provide timely insights without maintaining excessive historical data.
