RAM, that refers to Random Access Memory, is a computer storage media that can be accessed considerably quicker than a disk drive, as the information can be read randomly, skipping the bytes before the needed information is reached. On a hosting server, the RAM is used to load scripts and web applications once they are executed, so the more RAM you are able to use, the more programs you will be able to run simultaneously and the more people shall be able to explore your sites with no effect on the site’s/server’s overall performance. Unlike a disk drive, however, the RAM is used for short-term storage purposes, as the information is lost once the power is shut off. In case you use a shared web hosting account, the physical memory that your scripts may use may be limited and can change depending on what the other customers on the same web server use. With a virtual or a dedicated server, however, you'll have a guaranteed amount of RAM which won't be used by anyone else 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 is guaranteed and will be readily available at all times even if you do not use it for a long period of time. Every VPS account provides set system resources and runs in an isolated container apart from all of the other accounts on the physical web server, so even in case some account starts running out of memory, we will never allocate some of your memory to that account. We also never distribute the whole physical memory on the hardware node among the virtual accounts set up on it, in order to make sure that it will not run out of memory. In this way, there shall always be free RAM if you decide to upgrade your package and we guarantee the flawless operation of the physical machine.

Guaranteed RAM in Dedicated Servers

When you need a highly effective hosting solution for your Internet sites and programs and you buy one of the dedicated servers we provide, you will have a great deal of physical memory available all of the time. You will be able to look at the hardware configuration at any time via the billing CP, including the amount of RAM. We try out the memory sticks comprehensively as well as the rest of the parts before we use them to assemble any server, so when you get one of our plans, you will get a high-quality hosting server which will ensure outstanding performance for your Internet sites. Even in case you do not use the whole capacity of the hosting server for an extended length of time, the physical memory shall still be available for your server only.
