Interesting, so that'd be about 1 vCPU and 4GB RAM per 625GB of data. That seems very price efficient. Would something like AWS's EBS be sufficient for this? Would you need one of the higher tiers? Or would you be looking at running this on a box with locally attached storage?

Most of CrateDB clusters run on cloud providers hardware (azure, aws, alibaba). Using EBS (GP2 or now GP3) is also quite common. Due to the indexing / storage engine, gp disks are typically sufficient and faster disks have little to no advantage
