At the time of writing (2018-10-29), a `rippled` server stores about 12GB of data per day and requires 8.4TB to store the full history of the XRP Ledger. You can expect this amount to grow as transaction volume increases across the XRP Ledger network. You can control how much data you keep with the `online_delete` and `advisory_delete` fields. Online deletion enables pruning of `rippled` ledgers from databases without any disruption of service. It only removes records that are not part of the current ledgers. Without online deletion, those databases grow without bounds. Freeing disk space requires stopping the process and manually removing database files. @@ -98,7 +98,7 @@ Any enterprise or carrier-class data center should have substantial network band #### Storage -Ripple recommends estimating storage sizing at roughly 12GB per day of data kept online with NuDB.
