Thanks for reaching here! So,
Data In- The average incoming bandwidth used across all instances of the plan.
Data Out- The average outgoing bandwidth used across all instances of the plan.
To explain-
In the context of an Azure app service plan, "Data In" and "Data Out" metrics provide insights into the data transfer activities associated with the instances of that plan. When applications hosted on Azure interact with the internet or communicate with other services, data is exchanged both incoming and outgoing.
"Data In" represents the average incoming data volume, which includes requests, uploads, and other incoming interactions between your application and external sources. This metric helps gauge the amount of information flowing into your app instances.
On the other hand, "Data Out" indicates the average outgoing data volume, encompassing responses, downloads, and other data leaving your app instances. This metric gives you an understanding of the data leaving your application and being sent to external destinations.
The bandwidth consumption, represented by "Data In" and "Data Out," is influenced by the chosen app service plan tier.
In the case of a Free tier, there is a limited Bandwidth of up to 165 MB.
For app service plans categorized as Basic, Shared, Standard, and Premium, its Unlimited but data transfer rates apply.
Hope this helps. Let us know if further query or issue remains.
