How to choose Server Specs for Analysis Services

Good morningWe are going to be building a multidimensional analysis infrastructure. I expect to have tons of questions going forward, since I've never had to support this type of environment as a DBA. My first question is this - how do I choose a server size for SSAS? We have about 200 GB of production data (pretty small). I have not seen any Microsoft guidance on how to size the server. Can anyone provide a link or advice?I am going to be creating a cost sheet on SSAS versus Oracle Essbase, so I need to include the cost of the server, even though I'd guess both products would probably use the same size server. If anyone has an opinion about contrasting these two products, I'd love to hear it.Thank you!
