fix(traces): partition trace_facets_hourly by day - #1116
Conversation
Tinybird rejects the deploy: a 30-day TTL is shorter than the monthly partition period. Partition by day instead, like trace_list_mv. Migration 0034 is edited in place: it shipped with the API a few hours ago and no cluster has applied it, and a BYO ClickHouse cluster that did would only carry the coarser partitioning, which ClickHouse accepts. Local schema v25 recreates the rollup and rebuilds it from trace_list_mv, since v24 is frozen once on main.

🟡 Existing facet rollups retain monthly partitions
On clusters that already applied version 34, migration_0034_trace_facets_hourly never runs again. Apply migrations skips recorded versions, leaving their facet rollups partitioned monthly.
Learn more
ClickHouse schema migrations are versioned. Once version 34 has been recorded, the CLI and API apply paths skip it on later runs. Editing its CREATE TABLE statement changes only clusters that have not applied it; an existing monthly-partitioned table cannot be converted by CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS. The existing migration also truncates the rollup, so simply replaying it without replacing the table would not change its partition key.
Example: A BYO cluster applied version 34 last week and has PARTITION BY toYYYYMM(Hour). Applying this release skips version 34, so it still uses monthly partitions while a new cluster uses daily ones.
Recommended fix: Preserve version 34's original DDL and append a new migration that drops the materialized view, recreates the table with daily partitions, backfills it from trace_list_mv, reattaches the view, and records a new migration version. Account for source retention and retries when rebuilding the existing rollup.

Known and accepted (see the PR description). The daily partition exists for Tinybird, which rejects a TTL shorter than the partition period; ClickHouse accepts the monthly one, and the schema diff compares columns only, so such a table reads as up to date and serves the same queries. 0034 shipped with the API a few hours before this, and no schema apply has run since, so no cluster is expected to carry it. A drop-and-rebuild migration for a hypothetical cluster would cost every BYO org a 30-day backfill for no functional change.

- Line 63: Add a new ClickHouse migration after migration 0034 that replaces
trace_facets_hourly with the intended partition definition and backfills its
data. Do not rely on rerunning migration 0034, since recorded versions are
skipped and CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS will not alter an existing table’s
partition key.

tinybird deployrejectstrace_facets_hourly: its 30-day TTL is shorter than its monthly partition period ("This can make TTL cleanup inefficient"). Partition by day (toDate(Hour)), the same astrace_list_mv. With this change,tinybird deploy --checkpasses againstmaple_eu.main, so v25 drops and recreates the rollup, then rebuilds it fromtrace_list_mv. v24 and v25 share one backfill constant. No CLI release has shipped v24.Verification:
