In 2010 I was managing 100 servers, with many Oracle and Postgres DB, PHP, Apache, all on Solaris and Sun HW. I was constantly impressed by how people were unable to do more or less correct estimations. I had a discussion with my boss, he wanted to buy 8 servers, I argued one was more than enough. The system, after growing massively, was still in 2020 managing the load with just 3 servers. So I would argue, not only today, but 15 years ago already.
