Are data lifetimes managed?
Precisions
The regulations require control of the data life cycle for certain categories (for e.g.: personal data governed by the RGPD). Lack of consideration to other categories of data leads to the accumulation of data without taking into account their expiry dates, which increases the volume of data, the volume of backups and the resources consumed by accessing the data. Over time, the level of detail of the data becomes less important, which should lead to a reduction in the volume of data, preceding its eventual removal.
