Description

Ryan Kuo (taroface) commented:

Our Production Checklist mentions provisioning resources "for your workload" but doesn't provide further guidance on this.

A separate article on "sizing" a deployment for your applications needs is necessary. It should cover sizing:

- For workload
- For storage
- Antipatterns

Should include guidance on how to run load-test simulations, which help determine how to configure parameters such as the interval between `SIGTERM` and `SIGKILL` during node shutdown (relates to #6951).

@BramGruneir's interactive survivability app would also be appropriate to include here.
