PrefectHQ/prefect 3.6.19

3.6.19 - This release sucks in the best way possible

on GitHub

This release introduces an optional database vacuum service that periodically deletes old flow runs and orphaned resources (logs, artifacts, artifact collections) to keep your database lean. It's disabled by default — enable it with PREFECT_SERVER_SERVICES_DB_VACUUM_ENABLED=true. Once enabled, it runs hourly and removes terminal top-level flow runs older than 90 days. Both the retention period and frequency are configurable via PREFECT_SERVER_SERVICES_DB_VACUUM_RETENTION_PERIOD (in seconds, minimum 1 hour) and PREFECT_SERVER_SERVICES_DB_VACUUM_LOOP_SECONDS.
