RAM is an abbreviation for Random Access Memory. This is a sort of computer memory, that, different from other storage devices such as harddrives or DVDs, allows the information to be accessed directly without reading the previous content located within it. Each time an application is launched, it is stored in the RAM, due to the fact that it can be accessed considerably quicker than if it was read from another media device. With regards to the web hosting service itself, additional RAM means that more web apps can operate concurrently on a given web server, especially if they are resource-demanding and are accessed by a large number of people concurrently. Not like a shared web hosting package where the system resources of a given account may be flexible and sometimes depend on what other end users consume also, a VPS offers a guaranteed amount of RAM which can be used always. That memory is assigned to one web server only and will not be used by other customers even when it's not in use.

Guaranteed RAM in VPS

If you obtain a virtual private server from us, you shall have a allocated amount of RAM readily available all the time. We set up the VPS accounts on highly effective hardware nodes with a lot of physical memory, so as soon as a new virtual server is set up, the RAM is allocated completely to it based on the exact features of the selected plan. We never re-allocate RAM from a VPS that does not use all of its system resources to one which requires more resources, so you will be able to use the characteristics of your plan at their full potential at any time. We create just a few VPS accounts on a physical server and we ensure that it includes an adequate amount of memory to enable all the customers on it to upgrade the RAM their web servers are using without affecting the other accounts.

Guaranteed RAM in Dedicated Hosting

All of our dedicated server solutions come with a massive amount of physical memory, that'll permit you to run extremely heavy web apps without any issues. We use brand-new and extensively tested hardware components when we install a new server to ensure that there won't be any complications of any type. The RAM memory is not an exception and if you purchase a dedicated server, we shall ensure that you get the best performance possible from the configuration that you have selected. Even if we determine that you are not using the full capacity of the machine, we will not alter the hardware in any way, so the amount of RAM which will be readily available shall always be the same. You will be able to check the configuration, including the physical memory, within your billing Control Panel at any time.
