Quick Tip
Resource Planning
It is not possible to estimate resource requirements based solely on the number of deployed Responders. The determining factors are the type and volume of evidence collected, which can vary significantly between deployments. For instance, 1,000 Responders may generate 5 TB of evidence data, while 10,000 Responders could generate as little as 100 GB. Because of this variability, Responder count is not a reliable sizing metric.
We recommend proceeding with the installation using the suggested hardware values provided in the deployment guide, rather than attempting to calculate requirements based on the number of Responders.
As a general guideline, if you plan to deploy 20,000 or more Responders, allocate approximately double the recommended values to ensure optimal performance and scalability.
