Hi all

I am working on a project where data is delivered to elasticsearch using winlogbeat - logstash - kiibana. There are 4 source servers, each 1 file with 1 GB, so 4 \* 1 GB, these data should be stored 180 Tg, so 4_1_180 = 720 GB. Finally, the target will be up to 500 servers. But for the PoC only 4 servers. What do I need for VMs for elasticsearch, there should be 3 VMs for elasticsearch (master and slaves) and 1 VM for logstash. Could you help me there (RAM, Disk,.....), thanks!

Greetings Pat
