RAM is an abbreviation for Random Access Memory. This is a type 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. Each time a program is launched, it's stored inside the RAM, since it can be accessed considerably quicker than if it was read from another media. With regard to the hosting service itself, more RAM means that more web applications can operate all at once on a given web server, especially when they are resource-demanding and are accessed by a significant number of people simultaneously. Unlike a shared web hosting package in which the resources of a given account could be flexible and frequently depend on what other end users consume too, a VPS includes a guaranteed amount of RAM which can be used at all times. That memory is allocated to one server only and won't be used by other customers even when it's not used.

Guaranteed RAM in VPS Servers

When you acquire a VPS server through us, you will have a allocated amount of RAM at your disposal at all times. We create the VPS accounts on powerful hardware nodes with lots of physical memory, so once a new virtual server is created, the RAM is allotted completely to it in line with the particular features of the particular 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'll be able to use the characteristics of your package at their full capability all of the time. We create only several VPS accounts on a physical server and we make certain that it provides enough memory to permit all the customers on it to upgrade the RAM that their hosting servers are using without affecting the other accounts.

Guaranteed RAM in Dedicated Servers

All of our dedicated server plans feature a large amount of physical memory, that will permit you to run extremely heavy web applications with no issues. We use brand new and thoroughly tested hardware components when we install a new hosting server to make certain that there will never be any problems of any sort. The RAM memory isn't an exception and if you get a dedicated server, we shall make certain that you get the best overall performance possible from the configuration that you have picked out. Even if we notice that you're not using the full capacity of the hosting server, we shall not modify the hardware in any way, so the total amount of RAM which will be available will always be the same. You will be able to look at the configuration, including the physical memory, in your billing Control Panel at any time.
