HI All,

We currently have the following licenses assigned to our tenant:

Dynamics 365 Operations Application Partner Sandbox - IN USE
Dynamics 365 Partner Sandbox – Operations Application Tier 2 Add-on - YET TO BE REDEEMED FROM TENANT BENEFITS

We are planning to move from Cloud -Hosted machine to UDE. As part of this transition, we expect to deploy multiple UDE environments in PPAC. Our understanding is that each UDE environment requires its own operational database (AXDB), and as the table sizes grow, the operational database size will also increase.

Our main concern is whether creating multiple UDE sandbox-type environments will have an impact on the operational database capacity with in the tenant , particularly in terms of database size growth gradually and overall capacity.

Note :Currently we are using one sandbox environment for internal practice in that tenant and recently another UDE sandbox type development environment is deployed.

Hi Charanch,

When you will deploy UDE environments, a sandbox is deployed with or without demo data. This consumes database and file capacity from the entitled capacity.

You can create a new environment if you have at least 1GB database free. The UDE with a demo database consumes around 10 GB (4GB Dataverse and 6 GB F&O).

With the entitled capacity, you can mix and match between production and sandbox environments. In case you need more capacity, you can acquire more storage. In case you need your organizations configuration in your UDE environment, there is an option to do a transactionless copy to save on database consumption.
