I can tell you what does work, that’s what’s Microsoft says you should do... this means a lot of physical servers, for each system that means means 2 x 8-10 core CPU, just go 128gb ram and use pair of SSD’s.

I wound have guessed you don’t really need to follow what Microsoft says exactly but if you want support... and I guess most people won’t business critical services with support.

NB, virtual is not supported.

Here is the Microsoft doc...

I agree with the above you have to have extremely overpowered Hosts/VMs to be supported but with exception to the virtual not supported, they just don’t advertise it: Clarifying Support for Skype for Business Server 2019 Virtualization

Heres a best practice for vmware for the 2015 version as well:
