What duration can the retention period for Performance data for service requests be configured up to in Managed services?

The retention period for performance data for service requests in Dynatrace Managed can indeed be configured up to 365 days. This extended retention period allows organizations to maintain a comprehensive history of performance metrics, enabling them to conduct trend analysis, historical comparisons, and long-term performance monitoring.

This capacity for a full year of data retention is particularly beneficial for companies that engage in development, performance tuning, or capacity planning over longer cycles. It helps in making informed decisions based on historical data, which can reveal patterns that are not evident in shorter datasets. This capability supports effective incident response, root cause analysis, and overall service improvement.

In contrast, options for shorter retention periods will not provide the same breadth of historical data, which might limit analysis and planning efforts.
