What type of data can be searched in the thaweddb?

The correct choice is that thaweddb contains thawed event data along with other events. Thaweddb is the location in Splunk where frozen data (data that has been rolled over from the warm and cold storage phases when it is no longer actively searched) is stored once it is thawed. When data is thawed, it is made available for search. This process typically occurs when administrators retrieve older data from backup storage to make it accessible again in Splunk.

Thawed data will include events that were previously in a frozen state, meaning they were hard deleted from the immediate index but can still be recovered and searched when needed. By thawing the data, it allows for the retrieval of event data that may be relevant for compliance, forensic analysis, or when a specific historical query is needed.

The other responses do not accurately describe the function of thaweddb. Frozen event data refers specifically to data that has not been thawed, while only metadata from events would not encompass the complete event data necessary for analysis. Checkpoint data from the fishbucket is related to the state of data ingestion and processing but does not relate to the thawed storage of event data.
