The Storage page shows how much telemetry data your deployment is storing, broken down by tier. This page requires the view audit permission; editing lifecycle policies requires the manage storage permission.

Summary

The top of the page shows three hero metrics:
  • Used storage — total storage consumed across all tiers.
  • Capacity used / Hot tier used — how much of the fast-access layer is in use.
  • Daily growth — the average daily increase in storage consumption.
Below the hero metrics, a secondary tier strip shows the hot/cold storage split at a glance.

Time range

A time range selector lets you view storage trends over different windows: 24h, 7d, or 30d.

Storage by tier

A snapshot bar chart titled Storage by tier showing the current footprint across four tiers:
  • Hot — data in the fast-access layer (ClickHouse), used for real-time queries and dashboards.
  • Cold — data archived to object storage (S3) for long-term retention at lower cost.
  • Postgres — data stored in PostgreSQL (user accounts, teams, configuration, audit log).
  • Cloud (managed) — data held in managed cloud storage services within your account.

Usage by tier

A collapsible per-table breakdown of storage consumption. Each dataset entry shows:
  • Size — the amount of storage the dataset occupies.
  • Retention — the configured retention period for that dataset.
  • Compression — the compression ratio or algorithm in use.
Expand a dataset to view or edit its lifecycle policy.

Lifecycle policy

Lifecycle policies are edited via an inline accordion — expand the dataset row and adjust retention, compression, or tier-migration settings in place. There is no separate side drawer.
  • Viewing a lifecycle policy requires the view_audit permission.
  • Editing a lifecycle policy requires the manage_storage permission.
  • Users with read-only access can view policies but cannot change them.

Insights

Automated recommendations based on your storage patterns — for example, datasets with low query frequency that could benefit from shorter hot-tier retention, or unusually high growth rates worth investigating. This section also includes Hot → cold transfers as a time-series view, showing how data moves from the hot tier to cold storage over time.

Connectivity

A live indicator shows whether the storage health endpoint is reachable. If the connection drops or data becomes stale, a banner appears with a retry option.
