A correction to the data storage meters in Azure Data Explorer may result in storage cost increase.

It was recently discovered that some Azure Data Explorer clusters were undercharging for the amount of data being stored. This was corrected on November 3rd which may result in an increase in the Azure Data Explorer cluster storage cost for some customers. Below are the two meters that are affected by this change.

Meter Name

Cluster Type

Hot LRS Data Stored

Single Availability Zone

Hot ZRS Data Stored

Multiple Availability Zones

This does not affect any other meter categories but it’s possible that you’ll see an increase in the storage cost around November 3rd. We apologize for any inconvenience this might cause.
