RAM, which means Random Access Memory, is a computer storage media which can be accessed considerably faster than a disk drive, because the data can be read randomly, skipping the bytes before the needed information is reached. On a web server, the RAM is used to load scripts and web apps after they are executed, so the more RAM you can use, the more apps you'll be able to run simultaneously and the more people will be able to look through your sites without effect on the site’s/server’s general performance. Unlike a disk drive, however, the RAM is used for non permanent storage purposes, because the data is lost the moment the power is shut off. When you use a shared web hosting account, the physical memory your scripts could use may be limited and might change based upon what the some other clients on the same hosting server use. Through a virtual or a dedicated server, on the other hand, you'll have a set amount of RAM which won't be used by others even if you don't use it at a given time.

Guaranteed RAM in VPS Hosting

If you choose to host your Internet sites on a virtual private server acquired from our company, the amount of RAM that you'll get with it shall be guaranteed and will be available constantly no matter what. The VPS accounts are created on efficient hosting servers and when your virtual server is set up, the RAM memory included with the particular plan will be "locked", so even in case you use just a part of it ultimately while another VPS account is using virtually all of its system resources, we won't allocate the free RAM from your account even momentarily. That is valid when you upgrade the whole memory of the virtual server too - the additional amount will be added to your existing account completely. You shall be able to upgrade either your entire plan or just the server’s RAM with a couple of clicks within the billing CP.

Guaranteed RAM in Dedicated Web Hosting

The amount of RAM that comes with each and every dedicated server that we provide is big enough even for very resource-demanding web apps. The memory will be readily available for your sites and any software which you install on the web server at all times, so even if at some point you use merely a fraction of the resources that you have, we shall never alter the hardware configuration which you have ordered. All the parts are examined before the server is assembled, including the RAM sticks, to ensure that you'll get a flawlessly performing web server that can ensure the best possible efficiency for your sites. The amount of physical memory which you have will be listed with the full server configuration specifications within your billing CP.
