Data Retention

Full history servers provide a record of every transaction ever to occur in the XRP Ledger, although they are expensive to run.

Online deletion purges outdated transaction and state history.

Configure how far back your server should store transaction history.

Use advisory deletion to delete older ledger history on a schedule rather than as new history becomes available.

History sharding divides the work of keeping historical ledger data among rippled servers.

Set up a server to contribute to preserving shards of historical XRP Ledger data.
