RAM is an abbreviation for Random Access Memory. This is a sort of computer memory, that, unlike other storage devices including harddrives or DVDs, allows the info to be accessed directly without reading the previous content located inside it. Every time an application is started, it's stored within the RAM, since it can be accessed much more quickly than if it was read from another media. In terms of the website hosting service itself, extra RAM means that more web applications can work simultaneously on a particular server, especially when they're resource-demanding and are accessed by a large amount of people simultaneously. Different from a shared web hosting solution in which the system resources of a certain account can be flexible and often depend on what other users consume also, a VPS provides a guaranteed amount of RAM you can use all the time. That memory is allotted to one hosting server only and will not be used by other clients even in case it is not being used.

Guaranteed RAM in VPS Servers

When you opt to host your Internet sites on a VPS server bought from our company, the amount of RAM that you'll get with it shall be guaranteed and will be available always no matter what. The VPS accounts are set up on effective web servers and when your virtual server is set up, the RAM memory which comes with the particular plan shall be "locked", so even in case you use a little part of it ultimately while another VPS account is using virtually all of its resources, we'll never assign the free RAM from your account even momentarily. This is valid if you upgrade the total memory of the virtual server as well - the extra amount will be added to your existing account permanently. You'll be able to upgrade either the whole package or just the server’s RAM with only a few clicks within the billing Control Panel.

Guaranteed RAM in Dedicated Servers

If you acquire one of our dedicated server plans, you shall get a top-notch server with sufficient RAM to run even multiple resource-demanding web programs without any effect on the overall functionality of any of them. Because we test each and every hardware component before we use it when we construct a web server, we will ensure that the RAM sticks aren't faulty and that the web server functions flawlessly. The physical memory you will get will be available all the time, so even in times where you employ merely a part of it for any period of time, we won't alter the configuration. You shall be able to examine the hardware, including the amount of RAM you have, inside the billing CP.
