Data lake

Configure object-storage archiving for your Lake service.

When enabled, Lake copies eligible older transactions, balances, ledgers, and identities into verified Parquet files while hot Postgres stays lean.

Lake keeps archive indexes in sync and leaves hot database rows untouched unless purge is explicitly enabled.
