Can be elasticsearch use to storage permanet data?

[nino]

Hello all,

i am wondering if elasticsearch can be use to register data for ever (basic version), i mean i have several python processes that get data from different API and generate a custom document that then is indexed in elasticsearch. For example, indexing all emails sent by a company for quick search.

Is elasticsearch good for this tasks? we don't need life cycle for some indexes, we don't wan't data will be removed.

If so, what would be the best practices to achieve this?

Best regards

Elasticsearch doesn't delete any data you put into it unless you specifically tell it to do so. If you don't want it to delete any data, don't tell it to delete any data
