SIEM / SOAR Sizing Calculator

Estimate storage, compute, RAM, and infrastructure sizing for SIEM and SOAR deployments using a clean architecture-first workflow.

SOC Architecture

Built for security engineers and solution architects

Use this calculator to estimate ingestion footprint, storage retention, and node topology across common SIEM and SOAR platforms. The implementation mirrors the public reference flow while keeping the code modular and editable.

SIEM Sizing Calculator

Estimate the storage, compute, and cost requirements for your SIEM or SOAR deployment. Designed for SOC architects and security engineers.

Platform

Choose the SIEM or SOAR platform profile to apply the right ingestion and agent coefficients.

Total employees in scope for endpoint and user-centric telemetry assumptions.

Firewalls, switches, routers, proxies, access points, and similar network sources.

Transparent sizing assumptions are stored in reusable platform config and a pure calculation engine, so you can tune formulas later without rewriting the UI.
Recommended Architecture

Distributed

A distributed architecture is recommended to separate control, indexing, and presentation roles as ingest and resilience requirements increase.

How sizing is calculated

Daily volume is modeled from source counts and platform coefficients. Storage is estimated as daily ingest multiplied by retention and divided by the compression ratio.
