PolarDB:View usage details of a storage plan

Last Updated:Nov 15, 2023

The storage capacity of PolarDB is automatically scaled in or out based on the amount of stored data. You do not need to manually specify the storage capacity. You are charged only for the used space. To store large volumes of data, we recommend that you use storage plans to reduce costs.
