That is a great point. Setting the TTL on the corresponding index tables would be necessary as well then, if this approach acceptable.

If you have an index on your table, the TTL will remove some data from the table but will not clean the references in the index table. So if you query using the index, that will return some data which doesn't exist anymore on the original table. Therefore you dataset will become un-consistent. I will let Phoenix experts confirm.

Is there any problem with me going this route? Thanks, Ralph
