local UMS = game:GetService("MemoryStoreService")
local map = UMS:GetSortedMap("ServersBrowser")

function PlaceBid(itemKey, bidAmount)
	map:UpdateAsync(itemKey, function (item)
		item = item or { highestBid = 0 }
		if item.highestBid < bidAmount then
			item.highestBid = bidAmount

Line 5 in function PlaceBid. I think

MemoryStoreSortedMap:UpdateAsync(string key , Function transformFunction , int64 expiration)

The third argument/parameter for the method you are using determines the expiration date for the specific key which are in seconds.

local UMS = game:GetService("MemoryStoreService")
local map = UMS:GetSortedMap("ServersBrowser")

function PlaceBid(itemKey, bidAmount)
	map:UpdateAsync(itemKey, function (item)
		item = item or { highestBid = 0 }
		if item.highestBid < bidAmount then
			item.highestBid = bidAmount
			return item
		end
		return nil
	end, 100) --> For instance, the data we updated would expire after 100 seconds unless we update it once again. You can modify the number, but it must be an integer
end
