Supported metrics for Microsoft.Storage/storageAccounts/blobServices

The following table lists the metrics available for the Microsoft.Storage/storageAccounts/blobServices resource type.

Table headings

  • Metric - The metric display name as it appears in the Azure portal.
  • Name in Rest API - Metric name as referred to in the REST API.
  • Advanced platform metrics - A premium, paid tier of platform metrics in Azure Monitor that provide more granular observability for Azure resources.
  • Unit - Unit of measure.
  • Aggregation - The default aggregation type. Valid values: Average, Minimum, Maximum, Total, Count.
  • Dimensions - Dimensions available for the metric.
  • Time Grains - Intervals at which the metric is sampled. For example, PT1M indicates that the metric is sampled every minute, PT30M every 30 minutes, PT1H every hour, and so on.
  • DS Export - Shows whether the metric is exportable to Azure Monitor Logs via Diagnostic Settings.

For information on exporting metrics, see - Metrics export using data collection rules and Create diagnostic settings in Azure Monitor.

For information on metric retention, see Azure Monitor Metrics overview.

Category: Capacity

Metric Name in REST API Advanced platform metrics Unit Aggregation Dimensions Time Grains DS Export

BlobCapacity No Bytes Average BlobType, Tier PT1H, PT6H, PT12H, P1D No
Blob Count

The number of blob objects stored in the storage account.
BlobCount No Count Average BlobType, Tier PT1H, PT6H, PT12H, P1D No
Blob Provisioned Size

The amount of storage provisioned in the storage account's Blob service in bytes.
BlobProvisionedSize No Bytes Average BlobType, Tier PT1H, PT6H, PT12H, P1D No
Container Blob Count

The number of blob objects stored in the storage account at the container level.
ContainerBlobCount Yes Count Average ContainerName, BlobType, Tier PT1H, PT6H, PT12H, P1D No
Blob Container Count

The number of containers in the storage account.
ContainerCount No Count Average AccessLevel PT1H, PT6H, PT12H, P1D Yes

Category: Transaction

Metric Name in REST API Advanced platform metrics Unit Aggregation Dimensions Time Grains DS Export
Availability

The percentage of availability for the storage service or the specified API operation. Availability is calculated by taking the TotalBillableRequests value and dividing it by the number of applicable requests, including those that produced unexpected errors. All unexpected errors result in reduced availability for the storage service or the specified API operation.
Availability No Percent Average, Minimum, Maximum GeoType, ApiName, Authentication, Tier PT1M Yes
Egress

The amount of egress data. This number includes egress to external client from Azure Storage as well as egress within Azure. As a result, this number does not reflect billable egress.
Egress No Bytes Total (Sum), Average, Minimum, Maximum GeoType, ApiName, Authentication, Tier PT1M Yes
Ingress

The amount of ingress data, in bytes. This number includes ingress from an external client into Azure Storage as well as ingress within Azure.
Ingress No Bytes Total (Sum), Average, Minimum, Maximum GeoType, ApiName, Authentication, Tier PT1M Yes
Success E2E Latency

The average end-to-end latency of successful requests made to a storage service or the specified API operation, in milliseconds. This value includes the required processing time within Azure Storage to read the request, send the response, and receive acknowledgment of the response.
SuccessE2ELatency No MilliSeconds Average, Minimum, Maximum GeoType, ApiName, Authentication, Tier PT1M Yes
Success Server Latency

The average time used to process a successful request by Azure Storage. This value does not include the network latency specified in SuccessE2ELatency.
SuccessServerLatency No MilliSeconds Average, Minimum, Maximum GeoType, ApiName, Authentication, Tier PT1M Yes
Transactions

The number of requests made to a storage service or the specified API operation. This number includes successful and failed requests, as well as requests which produced errors. Use ResponseType dimension for the number of different types of response.
Transactions No Count Total (Sum) ResponseType, GeoType, ApiName, Authentication, TransactionType, Tier PT1M Yes
