Kotus-Tech365you might find this section of the Microsoft Stream Roadmap helpful:  https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/stream/streamnew/new-stream#how-will-storage-quota-work

Basically, the new Stream will provide tenant administrators with greater flexibility in managing, deleting and cleaning-up recordings. Part of that will the ability to set a default 'life-span' for meeting recordings. In other words, meeting recordings will auto-delete after 60 days. My understanding is that there will be some way to specify whether a recording is 'education or training' related so that it isn't automatically deleted.

    Kotus-Tech365 - Sorry for my super late reply. But now that you've had meeting recordings saving to ODB and SPO for a while do you have additional feedback on storage quotas, storage management, and life cycle? 

     

    What other things are we missing in this area that we should think about building, adding, or enhancing?
