Hello,

I have checked the "storage" now is about 10x the size of the databases (we are not aware of the reason for this size, I have also checked that there is not a peak in the last month for storage), anyway, we have to reduce storage to the 10% size aprox.

Could you please give us instructions on how to proceed to reduce the size?

Thanks in advancedazure1Captura

    Hi Jon Z

    If you are looking to reduce the storage, unfortunately, as mentioned in the portal and public document, it cannot be scaled down.User's image

    Here is a note from the public document https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/mysql/flexible-server/concepts-service-tiers-storage#scale-resources

    Thank You!
