    Yes, you're right. If you're using the CUDetail page and summing up the CU values per day, that gives you a good estimate of daily usage. No need for custom DAX if you're sticking with the default metrics.

    Now about the billing part:

    • Threshold breaches (like hourly spikes) don’t automatically mean extra charges.
    • What matters is whether your total daily CU usage exceeds the daily quota (in your case, ~5.5M CU for FT1).
    • As long as your daily total stays under that limit, you won’t be billed extra, even if some hours spike above the average.

    So you’re safe unless your daily usage consistently goes over the quota. But it’s smart to monitor those spikes — they can become an issue if they start pushing your daily total up.
