If that's the case, I think you could get away with one, relatively powerful, 
machine.  Our main EDEX
server is a virtual machine with 64 VCPUs and 250GB of RAM, and 3TB of disk 
space.

I think you could probably get away with about half that, maybe something along 
the lines of:
- 40(ish) CPUs
- 120 GB RAm
- 1.5TB of disk space

What exactly do you mean by "alert monitoring"? Having the ability to see 
watches, warnings, and 
advisories when they come out and co-located with other data?  Or something 
else?

Thanks.
