Description

All metrics now have a Time To Live (TTL) of 30 days https://github.com/oxidecomputer/omicron/pull/3553 . At the time of implementing this, we have little information on which aggregations will be most useful for a data rollup on row deletion.

When we have collected enough feedback from our customers to make an informed decision, these data roll ups need to be implemented.
