The Purge/Archive wizard in Pega Platform is appropriately used to remove old cases to reduce the size of a database table (B). Over time, completed or resolved cases can accumulate in the system, leading to large table sizes that can negatively impact application performance. By archiving these cases, you can move them out of the primary database tables into an archive, and by purging, you can delete cases that are no longer needed.
This process helps maintain optimal database performance and manage storage costs effectively.References:
