About the service
I set up automatic archiving of old orders turnkey, so your database doesn't bloat year after year and slow down your platform. After my setup, completed orders older than a year automatically move from main tables to a separate archive database — on schedule, without manual work, and without risk of losing anything.
Over a couple of years of marketplace operation, thousands of completed orders, messages, and transaction logs accumulate in main tables — and it's these, not server load, that usually cause search, user accounts, and admin panels to slow down. I move everything that's not really needed daily to a separate archive database, keeping only current and recent records in working tables. The main database becomes lighter, which means faster.
At the same time, nothing disappears permanently. I design archiving so you or your support can find any old order whenever needed — for example, if a customer disputes payment or asks about work from two years ago. After setup, the process runs itself without your involvement.
What's included in the work:
— setting up regular transfer of completed orders older than a set period to archive database;
— checking data integrity during transfer so nothing is lost or duplicated;
— tool for quick archive record search by order number, date, or user;
— documentation describing how everything works and how to change retention period in the future.
