RAM is an abbreviation for Random Access Memory. This is a kind 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 in it. Whenever an application is launched, it's stored within the RAM, due to the fact that it may be accessed much faster than if it was read from another media. With regards to the hosting service itself, extra RAM means that more web applications can operate concurrently on a particular web server, particularly when they are resource-demanding and are accessed by a significant number of people at the same time. Different from a shared web hosting package in which the system resources of a given account could be flexible and quite often depend on what other 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 shall not be used by other customers even when it's not used.

Guaranteed RAM in VPS

All of our virtual private server packages include a set amount of RAM. Simply put, even in case you use just a tiny fraction of the resources which your package deal offers, we will never allot the free resources to another VPS account on the same physical server. As we create only several virtual servers on a physical one, the latter shall always have ample free memory to secure the correct operation of all VPS accounts even if their RAM allocation is upgraded drastically at some time. In the event you also opt to upgrade your plan or to keep the active one and to incorporate only more memory, the new amount will also be reserved just for your account. In this way, we make certain that your websites will function adequately at all times whatever the other VPS accounts are using.

Guaranteed RAM in Dedicated Hosting

When you need a powerful web hosting solution for your sites and applications and you acquire one of the Linux dedicated hosting which we provide, you will have a massive amount of physical memory available all the time.

Even when you don't use the whole capacity of the machine for an extended time period, the physical memory shall still be available for your server only.
