### 3. Store nodes only keep 30 days of messages by default, what if I need to keep messages permanently?
|
||||
|
||||
Waku store protocol at this point does not provide a scalable solution to serve a large size archival data
|
||||
(as store nodes need to persist the entire history on their own local storage space),
|
||||
due to this, this protocol is more suitable for serving recent historical messages.
|
||||
|
||||
Nevertheless, research on the scalability aspect has been done and documented in [here](https://github.com/vacp2p/research/milestone/8).
|
||||
|
||||
Note that it is possible for operators to run their own store node and set a higher value than the default ones:
|
||||
|
||||
`nwaku`:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
--store-capacity Maximum number of messages to keep in store. [=50000].
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
`go-waku`:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
--store-days value maximum number of days before a message is removed from the store (default: 30)
|
||||
--store-capacity value maximum number of messages to store (default: 50000)
|
||||
```
