The boring answer is: It depends.
Is all about the traffic and number of users which is dynamic and not same for everyone.

If you’re looking to create a big instance with many users you’ll need a lot of power and storage.
It’s almost impossible to put the requirements down on paper. Sure you could estimate with enough data.
