RAM is an abbreviation for Random Access Memory. This is a type of computer memory, that, in contrast to other storage devices like hard disk drives or DVDs, allows the information to be accessed directly without reading the previous content stored within it. Each time an application is started, it's stored in the RAM, as it could be accessed much faster than if it was read from another media. In terms of the hosting service itself, more RAM means that more web apps can work simultaneously on a given hosting server, particularly when they're resource-demanding and are accessed by a large amount of people at the same time. In contrast to a shared web hosting package in which the system resources of a certain account could be flexible and quite often depend on what other end users consume also, a VPS provides a guaranteed amount of RAM you can use at all times. That memory is allotted to one hosting server only and will not be used by other clients even when it is not in use.

Guaranteed RAM in VPS Servers

When you get a VPS server through us, you shall have a guaranteed amount of RAM available all the time. We set up the VPS accounts on highly effective hardware nodes with no shortage of physical memory, so when a new virtual server is created, the RAM is allotted completely to it based on the exact features of the particular plan. We never re-allocate RAM from a VPS which does not use all of its system resources to one that requires more resources, so you'll be able to use the characteristics of your package deal at their full capacity at any time. We create only a few VPS accounts on a physical server and we make certain that it has a sufficient amount of memory to enable all the clients on it to upgrade the RAM that their machines are using without affecting the other accounts.

Guaranteed RAM in Dedicated Servers

If you need an effective web hosting solution for your sites and apps and you buy one of the dedicated servers which we offer you, you'll have a great deal of physical memory available all the time. You shall be able to check out the hardware configuration at any time from the billing CP, including the amount of RAM. We test the memory sticks diligently as well as all of the other parts before we use them to assemble any machine, so if you get one of our plans, you will get a high-quality server which will guarantee excellent performance for your websites. Even if you don't use the full capacity of the hosting server for an extended period of time, the physical memory will still be available for your machine exclusively.
