sql server - SQL Azure - Why is database size is much smaller when export and import to another database -


currently sql azure database size 8gb. when export database bacpac file, , import bacpac file new sql azure database, size of new database around 2.5 gb

thats huge difference in sizes same data.

anybody knows why happening?

(i'm using automated backup feature in web based azure admin area @ manage.windowsazure.com. , use import feature in same admin area import newly created bacpac new database)

thanks

backup not contain log information. well, fragmentation have made database grow in size , backup/restore defragmented it.
