Elasticsearch hardware recommendations

Viewed 3774

I'm deploying an Elasticsearch cluster with roughly 20MB a day with a time-to-live of 180 days. What would be the best hardware requirements for this amount of data? How many master and data nodes may require in this situation? Thanks.

20MB every day with retention period of 6 months is very less amount of data, you can have one node(which can also have master role) to serve your use case, CPU and memory size you can adjust according to your search and index traffic and can easily be done if you using cloud to create the nodes(AWS etc)

Just remember to give 50% of your RAM as Elasticsearch heap size to get optimal performance.
