RAM is an abbreviation for Random Access Memory. This is a type of computer memory, which, different from other storage devices such as hard disks or DVDs, allows the info to be accessed directly without reading the previous content stored in it. Anytime a program is started, it's stored inside the RAM, as it may be accessed much faster than if it was read from another media device. With regards to the hosting service itself, additional RAM means that more web applications can operate all at once on a particular hosting server, particularly when they are resource-demanding and are accessed by a great number of of people concurrently. Different from a shared web hosting package in which the resources of a certain account may be flexible and frequently depend on what other users consume as well, a VPS offers a guaranteed amount of RAM you can use at all times. That memory is assigned to one web server only and won't be used by other clients even in case it is not used.

Guaranteed RAM in VPS Hosting

The physical memory you will get with each virtual private server that we offer you is guaranteed and will be available always even when you don't use it all for a long length of time. Every VPS account features fixed system resources and runs in an isolated container separately from the rest of the accounts on the physical hosting 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 established on it, so as to ensure that it won't ever run out of memory. That way, there'll always be free RAM if you want to upgrade your package and we guarantee the flawless functioning of the physical hosting server.

Guaranteed RAM in Dedicated Web Hosting

The amount of RAM that comes with each and every dedicated server which we provide is sufficient enough even for very resource-demanding web programs. The memory shall be available for your websites and any software you install on the web server at all times, so even when at some point you use merely a fraction of the resources that you have, we shall never alter the hardware configuration you have ordered. All of the parts are examined before the machine is assembled, including the RAM sticks, to guarantee that you'll get a flawlessly working machine that will ensure the best possible overall performance for your websites. The amount of physical memory that you have shall be listed with the full hosting server configuration specifications in your billing CP.
