Microsoft Fabric Eventhouse Caching and Retention

Nikola Ilic notes the ephemeral nature of life:

You spin up your first Eventhouse, ingest some IoT data, fire up a KQL query, and it runs fast. When I say fast, I mean embarrassingly fast. A few weeks later, you query data from a couple of months ago, and… it’s still fast, but maybe a tiny bit slower. A year later, the same query starts to feel sluggish. Two years later, you can’t find some of the data at all.

Welcome to the world of tiered storage in Real-Time Intelligence!

And when Nikola mentions how fast data in hot storage is, that’s no exaggeration. It is, to my knowledge, the fastest way of retrieving data in Microsoft Fabric.
