Problem: &nbsp;Sharepoint 2013 server needs to be rebooted multiple times a week due to site availability and functionality issues. &nbsp;Sometimes it's search using too much ram and other times it's one or more site collections in IIS.<br />
<br />
Proposed resolution: &nbsp;Upgrade to Sharepoint 2016 and split out indexing and SQL to their own servers. &nbsp;Current deployment is a single server.<br />
<br />
Question: &nbsp;What is the recommended procedure for upgrading sharepoint and splitting services or is this seperate unique tasks? &nbsp;What is the recommended CPU/RAM for each server type?<br />

Is it possible to upgrade sharepoint and migrate from a single server environment to muliple servers at once?
