I'm new at elasticsearch , so I need some advice to build 3 nodes elasticsearch on small production which can handle about 2-3 tps when it peaks

option 1: 3 nodes  
1.1 node 1:  
- master: true  
- data: false  
- RAM 4 GB  
- CPU 2 GB  
- kibana install here  
- metricbeat install here  
1.2 node 2 :  
- master: true  
- data: true  
- RAM 2 GB  
- CPU 2 GB  
1.3 node 3 :  
- master: true  
- data: true  
- RAM 2 GB  
- CPU 2 GB

option 2: I use single-node is enough to handle it  
2.1 node-main  
- RAM 16 GB  
- CPU 2 GB  
- kibana install here  
- metricbeat install here

Thank you for advance 🙂

Welcome to our community! 😃

It depends on what sort of resilience you need. A multi-node cluster is more resilient than a single node one.
