+5Is there a calculator (or formula) to estimate the required backup storage capacity for Office 365 Backups (Exchange Online, OneDrive for Business, SharePoint Online & Teams)?
For “normal” backups (File, VMs, Databases) there is such a calculator (Link), but I haven’t found anything regarding Office 365.
How do others run such capacity calculations for Office 365?
Regards
Chris

This info can all be obtained from the Azure portal page.
admin center, go to the Reports > Usage
There are various reports for usage, sizing, etc which will give you a very close estimate on what total size you are using, it can report on all three of those agents Exchange, SharePoint, Teams, and OneDrive.
I believe there are even advanced reports that will give you activity that might help determine change rate in your environment to assist with incremental sizing if required.
+23Good question,
Let me ask around and see if we have anything available (or anything coming around).

You might be able to use the calculator anyway as long as you have the other values.
