 ## Pre-aggregated metrics
 
-In addition to log-based metrics, in late 2018, the Application Insights team shipped a public preview of metrics that are stored in a specialized repository that's optimized for time series. The new metrics are no longer kept as individual events with lots of properties. Instead, they're stored as pre-aggregated time series, and only with key dimensions. This change makes the new metrics superior at query time. Retrieving data happens much faster and requires less compute power. As a result, new scenarios are enabled, such as [near real time alerting on dimensions of metrics](../alerts/alerts-metric-near-real-time.md) and more responsive [dashboards](./overview-dashboard.md).

 > Both log-based and pre-aggregated metrics coexist in Application Insights. To differentiate the two, in the Application Insights user experience the pre-aggregated metrics are now called Standard metrics (preview). The traditional metrics from the events were renamed to Log-based metrics.

 ## Why is collection of custom metrics dimensions turned off by default?
 
-The collection of custom metrics dimensions is turned off by default because in the future storing custom metrics with dimensions will be billed separately from Application Insights. Storing the non-dimensional custom metrics will remain free (up to a quota). You can learn about the upcoming pricing model changes on our official [pricing page](https://azure.microsoft.com/pricing/details/monitor/).
