RAM is an abbreviation for Random Access Memory. This is a sort of computer memory, that, in contrast to other storage devices including hard disk drives or DVDs, permits the info to be accessed directly without reading the previous content located inside it. Whenever a program is launched, it is stored inside the RAM, since it can be accessed considerably quicker than if it was read from another media device. With regards to the hosting service itself, extra RAM means that more web applications can run concurrently on a certain web server, especially if they're resource-demanding and are accessed by a large number of people all at once. Unlike a shared web hosting solution where the resources of a given account may be flexible and frequently depend on what other end users consume as well, a VPS offers a guaranteed amount of RAM which you can use at all times. That memory is assigned to one server only and shall not be used by other customers even if it's not being used.

Guaranteed RAM in VPS Hosting

All our virtual private server solutions include a guaranteed amount of RAM. In other words, even when you use only a tiny fraction of the system resources your plan features, we will never allocate the free resources to some other VPS account on the same physical server. Since we set up only several virtual servers on a physical one, the latter will have ample free memory to guarantee the appropriate overall performance of all the VPS accounts even if their RAM allocation is upgraded drastically eventually. In the event you also decide to upgrade your plan or to keep the current one and to incorporate only more memory, the new amount will also be reserved exclusively for your account. In this way, we ensure that your sites will operate effectively at all times no matter what the other VPS accounts are using.

Guaranteed RAM in Dedicated Web Hosting

When you acquire one of our dedicated server plans, you shall get a top-notch machine with enough RAM to run even a number of resource-demanding web applications with no effect on the overall performance of any of them. Since we test each and every hardware component before we use it when we assemble a web server, we shall ensure that the RAM sticks aren't faulty and that the hosting server functions flawlessly. The physical memory you will get will be available all of the time, so even in times where you use merely a part of it for a period of time, we will not change the configuration. You will be able to check the hardware, including the amount of RAM that you have, inside the billing CP.
