Expiration of Deployments and Resources

An important feature of Dune is the Resource or Deployment expiration mechanism which helps to detect unused resources and keep the resource consumption under control. Whenever a new Deployment is created, the user has to specify an expiry date. The deployment and all its resources are then valid up to that expiry date. The Owner(s) of the deployment are notified in advance before its expiration and have then the option to extend. In case a deployment is not extended, all resource are stopped and kept for a 90 day grace period. Afterwards the deployment and its resources will be deleted.

Note

If desired a user with enough rights (TenantAdmin role) can also create a Deployment which will "Never Expire".

Following time spans are configured by default but can be adjusted on a Tenant level:

What	Time span
Default Expiry Date	90 Days
Max Expiry Date	365 Days
Warning notification before Deployment/Resources expire	21 Days
Deletion of expired Deployments/Resources after grace period	90 Days
