How long is RUM Waterfall analysis data retained for Managed customers?

Real User Monitoring (RUM) Waterfall analysis data retention period is crucial for analyzing user experiences and performance over time. For Managed customers, the retention period is set to 10 days. This means that all RUM Waterfall data collected and analyzed is available for review and insights for a full ten-day cycle.

This retention timeframe allows Managed customers to track and understand user interactions with applications, pinpoint performance bottlenecks, and make informed decisions about optimizations and improvements based on recent data. Access to data for this duration helps teams identify trends, make timely adjustments, and respond to any urgent performance issues that may arise.

The choice of 10 days strikes a balance between sufficient data retention for meaningful analysis and practical resource usage, ensuring that teams can maintain an agile response to user performance experiences without overwhelming storage capabilities. This time frame has been carefully determined to provide valuable insights while considering the needs of users and the functionality of Dynatrace’s monitoring offerings.
