Hi @premranjithj

There are actually number of considerations to implement ITSI,

what is the system requirements ?
Java to be installed on search heads as Anomaly Detection & Notable Events require it.
Search Heads & Indexers to have good amount of RAM & CPU cores.
Search Heads to be higher in version > 6.5.
Forward Data from Search heads to indexers as ITSI data is stored in summary indexing.
refer this doc for deployment planning,
https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/ITSI/3.1.1/Configure/DeploymentPlanning

what all data will be needed to configure?
You need to create Services and Entities.
You need to create KPI'S which runs in Services and on Entities, which are used to calculate the Service Health Score of these Services.
you can look at these series of docs to configure the Services, Entities & kpi's.

Have you tried looking at the Splunk docs that cover installation?

As for hardware specs, ITSI is very search heavy so you should first identify what services you want to use and how frequent they are going to run
