Retention periods are determined by balancing the potential value of the information

Retention periods are often set for record series or classification levels, but specific
records within that level or series may need to be retained longer because they are
required for litigation or because circumstances give those records unexpected

the same database can be viewed in many different ways. An important feature of
relational systems is that a single database can be spread across several tables. This
differs from flat-file databases, in which each database is self-contained in a single
table. (ISP Glossary)
