RAM is an abbreviation for Random Access Memory. This is a type of computer memory, that, unlike other storage devices like hard disk drives or DVDs, allows the info to be accessed directly without reading the previous content stored within it. Anytime a program is started, it's stored inside the RAM, since it may be accessed considerably quicker than if it was read from another media. With regard to the hosting service itself, additional RAM means that more web applications can work all at once on a certain hosting server, especially if they are resource-demanding and are accessed by a large number of people concurrently. In contrast to a shared web hosting plan in which the system resources of a certain account could be flexible and quite often depend on what other users consume also, a VPS has a guaranteed amount of RAM which can be used always. That memory is allotted to one web server only and shall not be used by other customers even in case it is not being used.

Guaranteed RAM in VPS

The physical memory that you will get with every virtual private server that we offer you is guaranteed and shall be readily available constantly even if 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 other accounts on the physical server, so even in case some account starts running out of memory, we will never assign 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 won't ever run out of memory. That way, there will always be free RAM if you choose to upgrade your package and we ensure the flawless overall performance of the physical web server.

Guaranteed RAM in Dedicated Hosting

You'll be able to check out the hardware configuration whenever you want from your billing Control Panel, including the amount of RAM. We try out the memory sticks diligently along with the rest of the parts before we use them to put together any hosting server, so when you buy one of our packages, you will get a high-quality server that will ensure exceptional performance for your Internet sites. Even in case you do not use the total capacity of the machine for an extended stretch of time, the physical memory will still be available for your hosting server exclusively.
