Archiving Event Store XML Files

Event Management automatically archives and moves the Event Store XML files to the archive folder available under the main EventStore folder. Archiving old XML files provides the following benefits:

• Reduces the disk space usage by zipping archived files
• Prevents flooding the hard drive through automatic archival when low disk space is detected
• Maintains only the latest and required XML files in the main folder
• Improves the performance of the queries (because you have less data to query)
• Allows data to be purged or stored offline without requiring a backend services stoppage
