WSUS has been part of the Windows Server operating systems for quite some time. To install WSUS on Windows Server 2012, you must install WSUS as a role.
• A WSUS server requires about 10 gigabytes (GB) of disk space for WSUS to run and 2 GB minimum to store the database. You will also need at least 30 GB to store the updates locally; however, depending on how many updates you need to store, you will most likely need much more.
A single WSUS server can support thousands of clients. A single WSUS server with 4 GB of RAM and dual quad-core processor can support up to 100,000 clients. However, most organizations of that size will have multiple WSUS servers to reduce the load on wide area network (WAN) links.
Lastly, the WSUS server or servers will need to communicate with Microsoft Update. Therefore, if you are having problems communicating with Microsoft Update, you might need to check the firewalls of an organization.
