RAM is an abbreviation for Random Access Memory. This is a type of computer memory, which, different from other storage devices including hard disk drives or DVDs, allows the data to be accessed directly without reading the previous content saved within it. Each time an app is launched, it's stored inside the RAM, due to the fact that it may be accessed much faster than if it was read from another media device. With regards to the website hosting service itself, additional RAM means that more web apps can work all at once on a certain hosting server, particularly if they are resource-demanding and are accessed by a large number of people simultaneously. In contrast to a shared web hosting solution in which the system resources of a certain account may be flexible and quite often depend on what other users consume also, a VPS provides a guaranteed amount of RAM which can be used always. That memory is allocated to one server only and shall not be used by other customers even if it's not being used.

Guaranteed RAM in VPS Servers

The physical memory that you will get with each and every VPS server which we offer is guaranteed and shall be readily available constantly even when you don't use it for a long length of time. Every single VPS account features set system resources and runs in an isolated container independently from the rest of the accounts on the physical hosting server, so even in case some account starts running out of memory, we shall not allocate some of your memory to that account. Additionally we never distribute the whole physical memory on the hardware node among the virtual accounts created on it, in order to make sure that it won't run out of memory. That way, there shall always be free RAM if you choose to upgrade your package and we ensure the flawless performance of the physical hosting server.

Guaranteed RAM in Dedicated Servers

If you need an effective website hosting solution for your sites and apps and you purchase one of the dedicated web hosting plans that we offer you, you will have a substantial amount of physical memory available constantly. You shall be able to look at the hardware configuration anytime via the billing CP, including the amount of RAM. We test the memory sticks diligently along with all the other parts before we use them to put together any machine, so if you buy one of our solutions, you will get a high-quality hosting server that will guarantee remarkable functionality for your websites. Even if you do not use the whole capacity of the machine for an extended period of time, the physical memory will still be available for your server only.
