Abstract

Disclosed are various embodiments for applying a pruning to data sets, files, logs, and/or any other information. A binning methodology may be employed to determine which data to retain or discard to determine a resulting set of data resembling an exponential decay where more recent items of data are more likely to be retained and more archaic items of data are more likely to be discarded. The resulting set of data may be associated with an average age.
