Description

What: Tiered Storage for efficient live debugging and also to retain it long term

How: Store Index data to local disk or any block storage. Configure Snapshot to Cloud Storage (S3) periodically and allow expiration for both the indexed data.

Not aware of such features right now in Quickwit. But Elasticsearch does it very elegantly.

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by mapping Quickwit's existing index-storage and snapshot behavior, then review how local or block storage, periodic S3 snapshots, and expiration could fit together. Done means a defined, implemented, and tested tiered-storage design covering live access and long-term retention.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
