RAM, that refers to Random Access Memory, is a computer storage media that can be accessed considerably quicker than a hard disk, simply because the info can be read randomly, skipping the bytes before the needed information is reached. On a server, the RAM is employed to load scripts and web applications when they are executed, so the more RAM you can use, the more programs you shall be able to run concurrently and the more people will be able to surf your websites without any effect on the site’s/server’s performance. In contrast to a disk drive, however, the RAM is employed for momentary storage purposes, due to the fact that the data is lost when the power is shut off. When you use a shared web hosting account, the physical memory which your scripts can use may be limited and might change based upon what the other customers on the same machine use. Through a virtual or a dedicated web server, on the other hand, you'll have a set amount of RAM which will not be used by others even when you do not use it at a certain time.

Guaranteed RAM in VPS Servers

The physical memory that you will get with every single VPS server that we offer you is guaranteed and shall be available always even if you do not use the whole thing for a long period of time. Each VPS account offers you fixed system resources and runs in an isolated container separately from all of the other accounts on the physical machine, so even in case some account starts running out of memory, we shall not allocate some of your memory to that account. We also never distribute the whole physical memory on the hardware node among the virtual accounts created on it, as a way to ensure that it won't run out of memory. That way, there will always be free RAM if you want to upgrade your package and we guarantee the flawless operation of the physical hosting server.

Guaranteed RAM in Dedicated Servers

All our dedicated server plans include a large amount of physical memory, that'll permit you to run rather heavy web applications with no challenges. We use new and carefully tested hardware components when we build a new hosting server to ensure that there won't be any complications of any type. The RAM memory is not an exception and when you get a dedicated server, we'll make certain that you get the best general performance possible from the configuration you have picked out. Even if we notice that you're not using the total capacity of the server, we will not alter the hardware in any way, so the amount of RAM that will be available will always be the same. You are able to check the configuration, including the physical memory, in your billing CP at any time.
