• Key Concepts: 
  A count-based retention policy is a feature of the SAP Event Stream Processor (ESP) component of the SAP Business Suite. It allows users to define a maximum number of events that can be stored in a stream before they are automatically deleted. This helps to ensure that the stream does not become overloaded with data and can be used efficiently.
  
  How to use it: 
  To use the count-based retention policy, users must first define the maximum number of events that can be stored in a stream. This can be done in the ESP configuration settings. Once this is done, any events that exceed this limit will be automatically deleted from the stream.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  It is important to set an appropriate limit for the count-based retention policy. If the limit is set too low, important data may be lost. On the other hand, if it is set too high, the stream may become overloaded and difficult to manage.
