What is TTL?

  • Time to Live
  • Feature that allows automatic removal of individual items
  • Dashboard app that only cares about the current day..
  • Reduces cost, can make some q’s more efficient
  • Totally free, does not consume write throughput
  • TTL happens automatically
  • Must be epoch in SECONDS, N type
  • TTL can take 48 hours or more - don’t rely on it though
