** Balancing Data Deletion and Historical Accuracy in E-commerce Platforms When it comes to managing data in e-commerce platforms, balancing data deletion with historical accuracy can be a challenge. A recent blog post by Krishna Cyber highlights three approaches to addressing this issue: soft deleting products, archiving deleted products, and storing necessary product details directly in the orders collection. Soft deleting involves adding a boolean key to indicate whether a product is deleted or not, while archiving deleted products keeps the original data clean and retains historical information. Storing product details in the orders collection ensures that even if a product is deleted, the order still has relevant data. ** Source: https://dev.to/krishnacyber/balancing-data-deletion-and-historical-accuracy-51a8
