I am trying to integrate a application logs using APM server in existing setup of Kibana version 6.4.3. I want to know if I need to setup a separate standalone server for APM and what will be the minimum configuration for that server.  
There are already some devices (firewall and proxy) are integrated in existing setup.

Please look at our [APM Getting Started guide (6.4)](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/apm/get-started/6.4/index.html). You can view the APM data in your existing Kibana instance, it just needs to point to the Elasticsearch instance which APM Server uses for ingesting data.
