SSIS service will run on a separate process from SQL Server, although it will interact with SQL Server keeping state and logging progress (the SSISDB), so a running SSIS process will influence a running SQL Server process.

Now there isn’t a clear separation between the memory utilisation of each process, in general (default settings), if SSIS requires more resources to run, and if SQL Server is not utilising the full 6GB of memory, then SSIS will cause SQL Server to lower its memory utilisation (by perhaps unloading some of the tables deemed unnecessary that SQL Server has loaded into memory), and allocating this resource to the running SSIS job.

Regarding tracing SQL Server memory utilisation, you could always setup perf counters on the SSIS process.

I recommend reading the following article, which explains how to track the memory utilisation of a running package.

Hope that helps!

Suppose my system has 8GB RAM and I have installed SQL Server 2012 on it along with the DataTools. Sql server engine uses 6GB memory. Will the SSIS uses remaning memory apart from 6GB or it uses 6GB?
Also is there a way to count the number of buffers used and the records accomodated in each buffer and the size of the buffer?

If am not wrong buffer refers to the RAM memory?
