Hi. Brand new to Meltano. Looking to spec out a Linux VM to run Meltano on. Can't seem to find any guidance on recommended system requirements such as CPU, Ram and disk. Also not clear if the extractors need to store the data extracted from the source before sending it to the target, thus impacting how much disk space is required. Any help or pointers to some online resources would be very much appricated.

This thread might be helpful for your sizing question - https://meltano.slack.com/archives/CMN8HELB0/p1624394295119200. Extractors are singer taps which pipe their data to the target (see more details about the singer spec https://hub.meltano.com/singer/spec), so usually they dont write to disk in the process

Thanks Pat, appreciate the input.
