If everything is in the green don&#39;t do anything.&nbsp; If it&#39;s in the yellow or red, get it in the green then don&#39;t do more.</p> <p>If your DB needs better performance, don&#39;t fix Appian.&nbsp; Fix your DB.&nbsp; Optimizing your VIEWs or an Index or two can make a world of difference.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>RE: What are the process instances that we need to delete automatically as soon as we execute the process ?https://community.appian.com/thread/83569?ContentTypeID=1Mon, 12 Jul 2021 19:02:57 GMTd3a83456-d57b-489c-a84c-4e8267bb592a:07526130-3136-4f15-9f5c-92be8a67682crajuk0007<p>thank you for you answer.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>RE: What are the process instances that we need to delete automatically as soon as we execute the process ?https://community.appian.com/thread/83538?ContentTypeID=1Sun, 11 Jul 2021 09:18:41 GMTd3a83456-d57b-489c-a84c-4e8267bb592a:b0ce8490-2fc7-499e-a56d-83d92788015fStefan Helzle<p>Is the question about a specific issue or generic?</p> <p>Data management in processes is mostly about memory consumption, the Appian exec engines will not slow down just because of many active/completed process instances.</p> <p>What DB do you mean? The relational DBs integrated to Appian do not care about processes.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
