Why this sizing

This Extra Small InfluxDB Enterprise deployment, with 3 data nodes and 2 query nodes, supports up to 100,000 writes per second and under 1 million series. Compute instances are the primary cost driver, accounting for $491 of the $663 monthly total. The architecture prioritizes a balanced compute-to-storage ratio, with 18 vCPUs and 64 GB RAM across the cluster, while providing 2050 GB of SSD storage. This configuration is for a non-HA setup, meaning there is no redundancy for high availability.
