Teams +SharePoint

8 vCPU - Intel Xeon Platinum 8000 series (Skylake-SP)

100 GB SSD

4000

Teams without SharePoint

8 vCPU - Intel Xeon Platinum 8000 series (Skylake-SP)

16

100 GB SSD

6000

Another rule of thumb would be around 150$ per month while on average, the servers need to work half of the time.

 

Notes

  1. Most file sharing controls require that SharePoint be proxied by SphereShield

  2. SSDs are recommended for logs. Traditional storage will also work.
