Hello, 

 

We have created a new envirinment with dataverse database and Dynamics installed, but no Dynamics App installed. Then have made several custom entities. The database size is now already 2.51 GB and the file size  4.67 GB without any real data in there! How is this possible? Normally it would be like 1 GB for a new database for data. How fast will this grow? I saw only 1 GB of data is 30€per month. How can it be that already 25% of the database capacity is being used?

 

Thank you in advance!

    Hi @Brutus 

    Right, this aligns exactly to the numbers I have seen in the past.  If you install the Dynamics Apps it will use just over 2GB in the Dataverse and the files / etc. match as you identified...
