RAM is an abbreviation for Random Access Memory. This is a sort of computer memory, which, unlike other storage devices like hard disk drives or DVDs, enables the data to be accessed directly without reading the previous content stored in it. Every time an application is started, it is stored within the RAM, as it can be accessed considerably faster than if it was read from another media device. With regard to the hosting service itself, additional RAM means that more web apps can operate all at once on a particular hosting server, particularly if they are resource-demanding and are accessed by a large number of people all at once. Different from a shared web hosting package where the system resources of a particular account can be flexible and sometimes depend on what other users consume too, a VPS features a guaranteed amount of RAM which you can use all the time. That memory is assigned to one server only and shall not be used by other clients even in case it's not used.

Guaranteed RAM in VPS Hosting

The physical memory which you will get with every virtual private server that we offer is guaranteed and shall be at your disposal at all times even if you do not use the whole thing for a long length of time. Each VPS account offers you fixed system resources and runs in an isolated container separately from all the other accounts on the physical hosting server, so even when some account starts running out of memory, we won't allocate some of your memory to that account. We also never distribute the entire physical memory on the hardware node among the virtual accounts created on it, so as to guarantee that it won't run out of memory. Thus, there shall always be free RAM if you decide to upgrade your package and we guarantee the flawless overall performance of the physical server.

Guaranteed RAM in Dedicated Web Hosting

When you purchase one of our dedicated server packages, you shall get a top-notch server with sufficient RAM to run even multiple resource-demanding web programs with no effect on the overall efficiency of any of them. As we test each hardware component before we use it when we build a web server, we'll make certain that the RAM sticks aren't defective and that the web server runs flawlessly. The physical memory that you'll get shall be available constantly, so even in times where you utilize only a part of it for any given period of time, we will never alter the configuration. You'll be able to take a look at the hardware, including the amount of RAM which you have, inside the billing Control Panel.
