 Note that each Thanos Receive will only expose local stats and replicated series will not be included in the response.
 
+## Tenant lifecycle management
+
+Tenants in Receivers are created dynamically and do not need to be provisioned upfront. When a new value is detected in the tenant HTTP header, Receivers will provision and start managing an independent TSDB for that tenant. TSDB blocks that are sent to S3 will contain a unique `tenant_id` label which can be used to compact blocks independently for each tenant.
+
+A Receiver will automatically decommission a tenant once new samples have not been seen for longer than the `--tsdb.retention` period configured for the Receiver. The tenant decommission process includes flushing all in-memory samples for that tenant to disk, sending all unsent blocks to S3, and removing the tenant TSDB from the filesystem. If a tenant receives new samples after being decommissioned, a new TSDB will be created for the tenant.
+
+Note that because of the built-in decommissioning process, the semantic of the `--tsdb.retention` flag in the Receiver is different than the one in Prometheus. For Receivers, `--tsdb.retention=t` indicates that the data for a tenant will be kept for `t` amount of time, whereas in Prometheus, `--tsdb.retention=t` denotes that the last `t` duration of data will be maintained in TSDB. In other words, Prometheus will keep the last `t` duration of data even when it stops getting new samples.
