### replication factor (RF)

data are stored in the cluster.

### retention policy (RP)
|
||||
|
||||
The part of InfluxDB's data structure that describes for how long InfluxDB keeps data (duration), how many copies of this data is stored in the cluster (replication factor), and the time range covered by shard groups (shard group duration).
|
||||
RPs are unique per database and along with the measurement and tag set define a series.
|
||||
Retention polices are specified in a bucket and describes how long InfluxDB keeps data (duration), how many copies of the data is stored in the cluster (replication factor), and the time range covered by shard groups (shard group duration). Retention policies are unique per bucket.
|
||||
|
||||
When you create a database, InfluxDB automatically creates a retention policy called `autogen` with an infinite duration, a replication factor set to one, and a shard group duration set to seven days.

|
||||
How the data are organized in InfluxDB.
|
||||
The fundamentals of the InfluxDB schema are databases, retention policies, series, measurements, tag keys, tag values, and field keys.
