RAM is an abbreviation for Random Access Memory. This is a kind of computer memory, that, unlike other storage devices such as harddrives or DVDs, enables the data to be accessed directly without reading the previous content stored inside it. Every time an app is launched, it is stored inside the RAM, as it may be accessed considerably faster than if it was read from another media device. With regard to the web hosting service itself, more RAM means that more web apps can run all at once on a particular server, especially 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 system resources of a particular account may be flexible and often depend on what other end users consume also, a VPS features a guaranteed amount of RAM which can be used always. That memory is allocated to one server only and will not be used by other customers even in case it is not used.

Guaranteed RAM in VPS Servers

When you obtain a VPS server from our company, you'll have a allocated amount of RAM readily available constantly. We create the VPS accounts on powerful hardware nodes with plenty of physical memory, so as soon as a new virtual server is created, the RAM is assigned completely to it based on the exact features of the specific package. 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'll be able to use the characteristics of your package deal at their full capability all of the time. We create only a few VPS accounts on a physical server and we ensure that it provides a sufficient amount of memory to permit all the customers on it to upgrade the RAM that their servers are using without affecting the other accounts.

Guaranteed RAM in Dedicated Servers

The amount of RAM included with every dedicated server we provide is big enough even for really resource-demanding web programs. The memory will be readily available for your Internet sites and any other software that you install on the hosting server at all times, so even when at some point you use a fraction of the system resources that you have, we will never alter the hardware configuration which you have ordered. All the parts are tested before the machine is assembled, including the RAM sticks, to ensure that you will get a flawlessly working web server that can ensure the best possible general performance for your sites. The amount of physical memory which you have shall be listed along with the full server configuration specifications within your billing CP.
