    Hi,

    The answer to your question is dependent of a lot of factors like number of user, peak load, and usage pattern.

    Here is a link to the system requirements:

    docs.microsoft.com/.../system-requirement-business-central

    In my experience RAM is more important than CPU.  But i don't think i would go for less than 4 cores.

    And in large implementations you need to monitor your servers.

    I would also say that scaling out is better that scaling up. So have your BC servers in a load balancing cluster instead of trying to build one server that takes all your load.

    And separate your DB server from your BC service tier servers.
