Microsoft Fabric is based on a unified business model that uses the capacity units (distinct pool of resources allocated) across all its engines or capabilities and simplifies your whole experience of how you purchase and use computing resources.

Further, Microsoft Fabric provides a Capacity Metrics app, which you can use to monitor capacity units and their usage across different engines/workloads/capabilities.
