RAM is an abbreviation for Random Access Memory. This is a sort of computer memory, that, unlike other storage devices like hard disks or DVDs, enables the information to be accessed directly without reading the previous content stored inside it. Every time an app is launched, it's stored inside the RAM, since it could be accessed much faster than if it was read from another media. With regard to the hosting service itself, extra RAM means that more web apps can operate simultaneously on a certain web server, particularly when they're resource-demanding and are accessed by a large number of people all at once. In contrast to a shared web hosting plan where the system resources of a given account can be flexible and often depend on what other users consume too, a VPS provides a guaranteed amount of RAM which can be used always. That memory is allocated to one server only and won't be used by other customers even in case it is not in use.

Guaranteed RAM in VPS Servers

If you choose to host your websites on a VPS server acquired from us, the amount of RAM which you'll get with it will be guaranteed and will be available at all times no matter what. The VPS accounts are created on efficient hosting servers and when your virtual server is set up, the RAM memory offered with the particular plan will be "locked", so even when you use a part of it at some point while another VPS account is using nearly all of its system resources, we won't allocate the free RAM from your account even momentarily. This is valid when you upgrade the entire memory of the virtual server too - the additional amount will be added to your account permanently. You will be able to upgrade either the entire plan or only the server’s RAM with a few clicks within the billing Control Panel.

Guaranteed RAM in Dedicated Servers

All our dedicated server solutions include a massive amount of physical memory, which will allow you to run incredibly heavy web apps with no problems. We use brand-new and meticulously tested hardware components when we build a new web server to guarantee that there will not be any issues of any kind. The RAM memory is not an exception and if you get a dedicated server, we will make certain that you get the best general performance possible from the configuration that you have picked out. Even if we find out that you are not using the total capacity of the machine, we will not modify the hardware in any way, so the total amount of RAM that'll be available will always be the same. You will be able to look at the configuration, including the physical memory, within your billing CP at any time.
