Why each option
Batch tokens in Vault are specifically designed to be non-renewable, non-persisted to storage, and have a fixed time-to-live (TTL) to manage their lifecycle.
Batch tokens cannot be renewed after their initial creation, meaning their lifespan is strictly limited by their time-to-live (TTL).
Batch tokens are not written to Vault's storage backend, which makes them highly performant but also means they are lost if Vault restarts or crashes.
Batch tokens cannot be periodic; periodic tokens are a different type of token that automatically renews for its period.
Batch tokens always have a fixed time-to-live (TTL) which cannot be extended or renewed, dictating their precise expiration.
Batch tokens are explicitly not persisted to storage, which differentiates them from service tokens.
