Explanation

The minimum reference server specification for a Splunk indexer is 12 CPU cores, 12GB RAM, and 800 IOPS. This specification is based on the assumption that the indexer will handle an average indexing volume of 100GB per day, with a peak of 300GB per day, and a typical search load of 1 concurrent search per 1GB of indexing volume. The other specifications are either higher or lower than the minimum requirement. For more information, see [Reference hardware] in the Splunk
