What does the Normalized Data Volume metric measure?
Normalized data volume estimates a database independent measure of the volume of user data which the database is managing, independent of database compression, indexing and other data transformations that affect the size of the data. To do this, the metric calculates the amount of data in the database by data type and translates it into a standardized format by data type. This information is gathered from internal database statistics and metadata, and sampling of actual data for variable length data types..
