Hello, I have not been able to find a concrete answer on if/how state stores on a running kafka streams instance remove data when it has passed the configured retention.ms config. So a couple clarification questions:
1. If the stores are configured with: cleanup.policy=compact,delete AND retention.ms=N, will the stores remove data automatically over time in the running stream instance stores? 2. Is this behavior the same for in-memory stores and persistent rocksdb stores? 3. If they do not remove data that has passed the retention.ms period, is there a different way to periodically remove old data from the stores? I’m using kafka 2.7.0 components across the board (broker, connect, etc.).
