Hello  
I would like to know if we can deploy logstash, elasticsearch and kibana in the same machine and also setting up 2 nodes of elasticsearch in this machine. The idea is I want to give 31Go Ram for each node and 4Go Ram to Logstash and let 30Go free. I have a machine with 8vCPUs,96Go Ram and 250GB HDD.

Do you think is a good idea? and my logstach should index files from 10 filebeat running on 10 servers?  
ps: my ES should handle 5Go of data every day.  
Thanks for your help
