Metric Metadata Requests: Count of metadata requests. Azure Cosmos DB maintains system metadata container for each account, that allows you to enumerate collections, databases, etc., and their configurations, free of charge. Used to monitor throttles due to metadata requests. Not A: Metric Data Usage: Total data usage reported at 5-minutes granularity per region.
