GitHub user dimas-b edited a comment on the discussion: How safe it's to use MongoDB/NoSQL Maintenance Job
@jaro-herod : just to clarify: the NoSQL maintenance job is *not* "Garbage Collection" in the traditional Iceberg sense. It does not reclaim Object Storage space unused by tables. The Maintenance job reclaims Polaris MongoDB space occupied by catalog change history, which you no longer need. Without the Maintenance job, MongoDB size would grow indefinitely.
