Hey,

At the moment, the metrics Prometheus server is configured with a retention policy that allows us to store only 15d of data:

Which, having a default of 15d when 0 (see https://prometheus.io/docs/prometheus/latest/storage/), means that we end up being able to go back a max of 15d.

Even though we didn't have a big need of going way back, it might be useful for some more high-level data like what flight_recorder or an SLI runner could give us.

Regarding disk, at the moment we're at a constant 20% utilization:

My guess is that going up in terms of retention would proportionally make this grow.
