A service that allows you to control batch retention is Azure Batch, which is an Azure service that can be used to perform large-scale parallel batch processing. It is typically used for high-performance computing applications such as image analysis, 3D rendering, genome sequencing, and optical character recognition.
However, you can create an Azure Batch activity in a pipeline and use it to run some part of the process for better control of the executing environment, including the possibility to specify the retention...
