Database not showing storage consumption

[Gagan405]

Hi,

I am just testing out GCP spanner for our usecase. I created a sample database and table, added a few rows.

But the storage data is showing as `-/10 GB`. Does it mean it doesn't show in bytes or MBs?

Also, how soon I can expect to see those values?

Ok, digging around the documentations a bit, I understand that it should show up as bytes. Still waiting for it.

Hi, @Gagan405.

Cloud Spanner typically shows storage usage in GB and not in bytes or MB. The system may round the values for ease of understanding, so you might not see the data usage break down into smaller units unless you go into detailed metrics. You can check this documentation regarding this - Spanner Storage Utilization Metrics.

Sounds inaccurate. I see that it shows `B` and their documentation mentions that its gibibytes.

What do you mean detailed metrics? I am even checking from `spanner_sys.table_sizes_stats_1hour`. 

I dont see any other place to see additional details.
