Less than 1000 clients I'd say you can get by with about any reasonably sized 
box.

Subject: RE: [mssms] SQL Server Sizing

Are you looking for sizing so you can determine scaling or performance?  Is the 
client count for that site going to grow?

With the client count of ~570 - I'd guess you would be fine following some 
general guidelines:

I'm using Kent's ConfigMgr-SQL-recommendations spreadsheet found on this blog:

http://blog.coretech.dk/kea/system-center-2012-configuration-manager-sql-recommendations/

The one thing I'm having difficulty with is determining the exact number of 
processors and cores.

This particular client environment consists of the following:

~570 (servers & clients)
- 4 Locations (1 Primary Site in WA, 2nd DP at Primary HQ in WA, 3rd DP in CA 
and a 4th DP in the Cloud.

How do I estimate the number of cores and processors for this installation?

Thanks,
Brian
