We tested several scenarios to help you understand how to size the APM Server so that it can keep up with the load that your Elastic APM agents are sending:

* Using the default hardware template on AWS, GCP and Azure on {ecloud}.
* Using the _CPU Optimized_ hardware template on AWS, GCP and Azure on {ecloud} with the following instances (for more details see {cloud}/ec-configure-deployment-settings.html#ec-hardware-profiles[Hardware Profiles]):
** AWS: c6gd
** Azure: fsv2
** GCP: n2.68x32x45
* For each hardware template, testing with several sizes: 1 GB, 4 GB, 8 GB, and 32 GB.
* For each size, using a fixed number of APM agents: 10 agents for 1 GB, 30 agents for 4 GB, 60 agents for 8 GB, and 240 agents for 32 GB.
* In all scenarios, using medium sized events. Events include
