Do you have any sources where I can find information regarding sizing (according to traffic: events/second) and what kind of hardware do I need ? And how to build a cluster ? Any good manuals / references where to start ?
Hi Glenn,
Welcome to this forum! I can provide a few links(I am sure there are a lot more) but the shortest answer to your question is: It depends!
Basically, it depends on:
- How much data do you receive?
- In which format do you get the data, how complex is the parsing?
- How long do you store it?
- How many search requests do you get and how complex are they?
- ...
The best way is to start small and upgrade the cluster if the servers come to their limits.
A few links for sizing:

Which Operating systems(and Runtimes) are supported:
