RAM, that refers to Random Access Memory, is a computer storage media that may be accessed considerably faster than a hard disk, because the information 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 programs once they are executed, so the more RAM you are able to use, the more apps you will be able to run simultaneously and the more people shall be able to look through your sites with no effect on the site’s/server’s functionality. Different from a disk drive, however, the RAM is employed for short-term storage purposes, due to the fact that the info is lost as soon as the power is shut off. When you use a shared web hosting account, the physical memory which your scripts could use may be limited and may change based upon what the other customers on the same web server use. With a virtual or a dedicated web server, alternatively, you'll have a guaranteed amount of RAM that will not be used by others even when you do not use it at a given time.

Guaranteed RAM in VPS Servers

All of our VPS server solutions include a guaranteed amount of RAM. In other words, even in case you use a small fraction of the resources that your package comes with, we'll never allot the free resources to a different VPS account on the same physical server. Since we create only a few virtual servers on a physical one, the latter will have plenty of free memory to secure the proper functioning of all VPS accounts even when their RAM allocation is upgraded tremendously at some point. If you also choose to upgrade your package deal or to keep the present one and to add just more memory, the new amount shall also be reserved only for your account. That way, we make certain that your websites will function effectively at all times no matter what the other VPS accounts are using.

Guaranteed RAM in Dedicated Servers

The amount of RAM that comes with every dedicated server which we provide is sufficient enough even for very resource-demanding web programs. The memory will be readily available for your sites and every other software which you install on the hosting server at all times, so even if at some point you use just a fraction of the resources you have, we will never alter the hardware configuration you have ordered. All the parts are tested before the hosting server is assembled, including the RAM sticks, to guarantee that you shall get a flawlessly working server that will guarantee the best possible efficiency for your websites. The amount of physical memory which you have shall be listed together with the full server configuration specifications within your billing CP.
