RAM, which refers to Random Access Memory, is a computer storage media which can be accessed considerably quicker than a disk drive, because the info can be read randomly, skipping the bytes before the needed data is reached. On a server, the RAM is used to load scripts and web apps when they are executed, so the more RAM you can use, the more programs you shall be able to run all at once and the more people shall be able to look through your websites with no effect on the site’s/server’s overall performance. Unlike a disk drive, however, the RAM is used for temporary storage purposes, as the data is lost when the power is shut off. When you use a shared web hosting account, the physical memory your scripts could use may be limited and could change according to what the some other clients on the same server use. With a virtual or a dedicated web server, however, you shall have a guaranteed amount of RAM which will not be used by anybody else even when you do not use it at a given time.

Guaranteed RAM in VPS

All our virtual private server packages feature a set amount of RAM. To paraphrase, even when you use only a fraction of the system resources that your plan offers, we will not assign the free resources to another VPS account on the very same physical hosting server. Since we set up only a few virtual servers on a physical one, the latter shall always have sufficient free memory to secure the appropriate overall performance of the VPS accounts even in case that their RAM allocation is upgraded substantially eventually. In the event you also opt to upgrade your plan or to keep the latest one and to include only more memory, the new amount will also be reserved exclusively for your account. In this way, we guarantee that your sites will perform adequately at all times no matter what the other VPS accounts are using.

Guaranteed RAM in Dedicated Hosting

When you acquire one of our dedicated server packages, you shall get a top-notch web server with enough RAM to run even a number of resource-demanding web apps with no effect on the overall efficiency of any one of them. As we test every hardware component before we use it when we set up a server, we will make perfectly sure that the RAM sticks aren't malfunctioning and that the machine runs flawlessly. The physical memory you will get will be available all of the time, so even in times in which you utilize merely a part of it for any period of time, we won't change the configuration. You'll be able to examine the hardware, including the amount of RAM which you have, inside the billing Control Panel.
