I have no recommendation at this point in time.
I found out the hard way, that you cannot really install nscale while running it in 512MB of RAM, as it needs to compile some stuff. Also, some heavy docker builds might fail.

In my experience 1GB works fine. As for disk, the more the better. You can cleanup all the docker images and so on from Docker itself, as nscale stores them in its registry. However, you might want to put it in a big disk (50-100GB, maybe), as it can run out of space. Like Docker, the registry deduplicates the layers, but you do not really want to remove stuff from there, as it might undermine your ability of rollbacks. S3 might be supported for storing the images, too, but we have not tested it yet. The whole disk management story needs some kind of polishing.

I had problems when installed on a server with 512 mb, but only add a swap space and it worked well. 😀
