          Hi,
            

            Are there any recommended hardware requirements to
              setup PostgreSQL DB server?  I checked https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Database_Hardware
              but unable to find it. I am going to install Postgresql
              9.6 version in AWS (https://aws.amazon.com/ec2/instance-types/).
              I will appreciate if someone can suggest how many CPU
              cores, physical memory and disk space is required for the
              setup.
            

            Thanks in Advance and i look forward to hearing from
              you.
          
        
    That's impossible to answer unless you say something about:

    
      the size of the database,
      what use type (OLTP, OLAP, DSS, mixed usage, etc),
      number of concurrent users,
      etc
