RAM is an abbreviation for Random Access Memory. This is a kind of computer memory, which, different from other storage devices including harddrives or DVDs, enables the data to be accessed directly without reading the previous content stored within it. Anytime a program is started, it is stored in the RAM, since it may be accessed considerably faster than if it was read from another media device. With regard to the web hosting service itself, more RAM means that more web applications can run simultaneously on a particular hosting server, especially if they are resource-demanding and are accessed by a great number of of people all at once. Different from a shared web hosting plan in which the system resources of a particular account can be flexible and sometimes depend on what other end users consume too, a VPS provides a guaranteed amount of RAM that can be used always. That memory is allocated to one hosting server only and shall not be used by other clients even when it's not used.

Guaranteed RAM in VPS Hosting

The physical memory which you will get with every virtual private server we offer is guaranteed and will be available at all times even if you don't use it all for a long stretch of time. Each and every VPS account offers you set system resources and runs in an isolated container independently from the rest of the accounts on the physical server, so even when some account starts running out of memory, we will never allot some of your memory to that account. Furthermore never distribute the whole physical memory on the hardware node among the virtual accounts created on it, so as to guarantee that it will never run out of memory. In this way, there will always be free RAM if you choose to upgrade your package and we guarantee the flawless overall performance of the physical server.

Guaranteed RAM in Dedicated Web Hosting

The amount of RAM that comes with each and every dedicated server which we offer is large enough even for very resource-demanding web programs. The memory will be readily available for your sites and all other software which you install on the web server at all times, so if at some point you use merely a fraction of the system resources you have, we shall never alter the hardware configuration you have ordered. All of the parts are examined before the server is assembled, including the RAM sticks, to make sure that you will get a flawlessly functioning hosting server that will ensure the best possible performance for your websites. The amount of physical memory that you have will be listed together with the full server configuration specifications in your billing Control Panel.
