Overview
As of August 22nd 2023, we host 292 Preview releases on our server (slicer-packages.kitware.com).
Note that Preview release are different from Stable releases. Stable releases will never be removed.
This is roughly equivalent to:
- 880 application installers (
292 revisions * 3 operating systems) - 150k extension packages (
292 revisions * 3 operating systems * 177 extensions) - Totaling ~800GB (one preview release ~900MB)
Retention Policy:
We plan to keep about 180 Preview releases (roughly 6 months’ worth).
Removal Plan:
At 9pm EST daily:
- Remove 10 oldest Previews until 180 left
- Then, remove one daily.
