RAM, that refers to Random Access Memory, is a computer storage media that can be accessed much quicker than a disk drive, as the info can be read randomly, skipping the bytes before the needed data is reached. On a hosting server, the RAM is employed to load scripts and web applications once they are executed, so the more RAM you can use, the more apps you shall be able to run simultaneously and the more people shall be able to look through your websites without effect on the site’s/server’s overall performance. Unlike a disk drive, however, the RAM is used for non permanent 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 may use may be limited and might change depending on what the some other clients on the same hosting server use. Using a virtual or a dedicated hosting server, however, you shall have a fixed amount of RAM that won't be used by anybody else even if you don't use it at a particular time.
Guaranteed RAM in VPS Servers
The physical memory you will get with every single VPS server we offer you is guaranteed and will be at your disposal at all times even when you don't use all of it for a long stretch of time. Each and every VPS account features fixed system resources and runs in an isolated container independently from the rest of the accounts on the physical hosting server, so even when some account starts running out of memory, we won't assign some of your memory to that account. Additionally we never distribute the entire physical memory on the hardware node among the virtual accounts established on it, so as to make sure that it will not run out of memory. That way, there'll always be free RAM if you wish to upgrade your package and we guarantee the flawless overall performance of the physical machine.
Guaranteed RAM in Dedicated Servers
When you need a highly effective web hosting solution for your websites and applications and you purchase one of the dedicated web hosting plans we provide you with, you'll have a great deal of physical memory available at all times. You shall be able to look at the hardware configuration at any time via the billing CP, including the amount of RAM. We test the memory sticks extensively alongside all the other parts before we use them to build any hosting server, so if you get one of our solutions, you shall get a high-quality hosting server that will guarantee exceptional overall performance for your Internet sites. Even if you do not use the full capacity of the machine for an extended length of time, the physical memory will still be available for your hosting server only.
