data model acceleration

Hello,

I have data model that i want to change the acceleration time to all time.

since im working with kubernetece the change has to be in the config files directly and not through the ui.

i saw in the documentation that empty string for 

acceleration.earliest_time

means all time

but when i change this field to be empty, the configuration in the ui changed to be 1 day instead of all time as it should.

 

any ideas ?

thanks

Searching All Time rarely is a good idea, especially for datamodels.  The goal of DMA is to make accessing your data faster in routine searches.  One-off and non-routine searches usually can wait the extra time it takes to gather the data.  Otherwise, you're putting extra work on your system to search (and store) more than is necessary.

What is the use case for having All Time data accelerated?
