RAM, or Random Access Memory, is a sort of computer data storage, which allows the data to be read randomly without accessing the preceding bytes before that. This makes the RAM a lot quicker than other types of storage devices including DVDs or HDDs in which all the data ought to be read to be able to access particular information. In case you have a shared hosting account, the amount of memory which your web applications can use may not be fixed and may often depend on the free memory which is available on the physical server. Using a standalone server, however, there is always a minimum amount of physical memory which shall be readily available at all times and will never be assigned to other clients even if it's not being used. That is valid with our virtual and dedicated web servers.
Guaranteed RAM in VPS Servers
If you choose to host your Internet sites on a VPS server bought from our company, the amount of RAM which you'll get with it will be guaranteed and will be available always no matter what. The VPS accounts are created on efficient hosting servers and when your virtual server is set up, the RAM memory that comes with the particular plan shall be "locked", so even when you use a part of it at some point while another VPS account is using most of its resources, we'll never assign the free RAM from your account even for the short term. That is valid when you upgrade the whole memory of the virtual server too - the additional amount shall be added to your account fully. You will be able to upgrade either your entire package or just the server’s RAM with only a couple of clicks within the billing CP.
Guaranteed RAM in Dedicated Servers
The amount of RAM that comes with every dedicated server we offer is big enough even for really resource-demanding web apps. The memory will be available for your websites and any other software you install on the server at all times, so even if at some point you use a fraction of the resources you have, we will never alter the hardware configuration which you have ordered. All of the components are tested before the machine is built, including the RAM sticks, to make sure that you shall get a flawlessly functioning web server that will ensure the best possible efficiency for your sites. The amount of physical memory you have shall be listed along with the full hosting server configuration specifications in your billing CP.
