Hello Team,
I wanted to know if there is a way to increase the retention period of a table in database?
I have created a database for storing chat messages; it is integrated with Cisco IM & Presence application. For details on integration: https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/unified-communications/unified-presence-version-80/117735...
In the created db, the chat messages are stored in the ‘jm’ table for which the retention period seems to be 15 days. I would like to know if this can be increased and how.
Any inputs are highly appreciated.
Thanks & regards,
Ishan Arora

There is no "retention period" in Postgres. If messages are disappearing after 15 days, then your application is deleting them.

Postgres itself does not have any way to define a retention period for data as you describe. Once the data goes in, the user or application must issue a statement to delete the data, This would be done by the application vendor ( Cisco). Most likely it’s a configuration option on the admin section of the application. I recommend you contact Cisco support for details.
