SQL server requirement monitoring role in Skype for Business 2019

Hi Community, 

One of our customer raised the below query:

They have installed Skype for Business 2019 Standard edition. 

Question:

Do we require separate sql instance for monitoring server in Skype for Business 2019 standard edition other than Sql 2016 express edition as monitoring collocation is not supported according to the below article?

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/skypeforbusiness/plan-your-deployment/topology-basics/topology-basics

it says the below:

These can't be collocated on the Standard Edition server, but can go on a single database server of their own:

• Monitoring database

• Archiving database

• Any back-end database for an Enterprise Edition Front End pool

Any inputs would be of great help.
