 <sup>1</sup> The minimum memory required for installing the [!INCLUDE [ssDQSServer](../../includes/ssdqsserver-md.md)] component in [!INCLUDE [ssDQSnoversion](../../includes/ssdqsnoversion-md.md)] (DQS) is 2 GB of RAM, which is different from the [!INCLUDE [ssnoversion-md](../../includes/ssnoversion-md.md)] minimum memory requirement. For information about installing DQS, see [Install Data Quality Services](../../data-quality-services/install-windows/install-data-quality-services.md).
