Azure PostgreSQL instances data abnormally incresing

Albion 1

I am having an instance of Azure PostgreSQL. I am using this instance for development purpose. And only I use this instance for now. But, this instance is increasing its size automatically even without access or no activity.

This month I did not open or use this instance for a single time but already it's showing 2.84gb used. Is there anything I can do to fix this?

Hi @Albion ,

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A platform and thanks for using Azure services.

As I understand your question, Azure Postgres SQL instance is increasing its size even without any activity.

Please check if logging or query store is enabled. Also please check if no transactions are being done nor connections.

Awaiting your reply. Thanks
