Doing proper scaling before you go and deploying vRealize Operations is very important.

- Size of the environment that you expect to monitor and analyze
- Number of objects that you plan to monitor
- Number of metrics that you plan to collect
As you can see from the following table, VMware offers various sizes during installation, each of which consume a certain amount of CPUs and memory to be able to handle a given amount of objects and collected metrics:

Node size |
Maximum number of ... |
