I would like know why in the azure portal don't have the view of databases sizes.

My suggestion, Microsoft could add a column that shows the size of the databases. This information would be very useful to everyone

Hi, an alternate way to easy see and track the size of each database is via new database size
metric. Details below:
Ref - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/postgresql/flexible-server/concepts-monitoring#default-metrics

Database Size database_size_bytes Bytes Database size in bytes.

Database Size database_size_bytes Bytes Database size in bytes.

Hello @Varun Dhawan ! thank you for your answer, but this does not solve my problem. However, I made a suggestion for improvement to implement a column with information about the size of each database on the PostgresSQL server. I would like to know if Microsoft would be willing to make this improvement. For example Like this image below

Database Size	database_size_bytes	Bytes	Database size in bytes.
Database Size	`database_size_bytes`	Bytes	Database size in bytes.

The Azure portal does not have a dedicated column that shows the size of databases by default. However, you can view the size of a single database in the Metrics blade, where it is listed as Total Database Size. Please check the below doc for further details.

Your suggestion to add a column that shows the size of the databases directly in the Azure portal is a great idea and could indeed be very useful for many users.

I’d like to have you submit feedback on our https://feedback.azure.com/d365community/forum/c5e32b97-ee24-ec11-b6e6-000d3a4f0da0 forum, so we have this in our backlog for tracking.
