All true. I guess I am looking for a first approximation, so that one can have a starting point from which one can fine-tune. The problem is to somewhat mimic what an expert might do given the requirements, to say, for example, "We'll have 5 48-core boxes, three of which will have Kafka, two will have the database, the in-memory grid will be spread over all 5 etc, and here are the relevant config files". Maybe it spits out ansible code. Thanks for engaging.
