RAM is an abbreviation for Random Access Memory. This is a sort of computer memory, that, in contrast to other storage devices including harddrives or DVDs, enables the data to be accessed directly without reading the previous content saved in it. Each time an application is launched, it is stored inside the RAM, as it may be accessed much more quickly than if it was read from another media device. In terms of the website hosting service itself, additional RAM means that more web apps can work simultaneously on a certain server, especially when they are resource-demanding and are accessed by a large number of people at the same time. Unlike a shared web hosting solution in which the system resources of a certain account may be flexible and quite often depend on what other end users consume as well, a VPS offers a guaranteed amount of RAM you can use at all times. That memory is allotted to one web server only and shall not be used by other clients even if it's not used.

Guaranteed RAM in VPS

When you choose to host your websites on a virtual private server purchased from us, the amount of RAM that you will get with it shall be guaranteed and shall be available always no matter what. The VPS accounts are set up on effective servers and when your virtual server is set up, the RAM memory provided with the particular plan will be "locked", so even when you use a little part of it ultimately while another VPS account is using most of its system resources, we'll never allot the free RAM from your account even for the short term. This is valid when you upgrade the entire memory of the virtual server too - the extra amount shall be added to your current account entirely. You'll be able to upgrade either your entire package or just the server’s RAM with several clicks inside the billing Control Panel.

Guaranteed RAM in Dedicated Hosting

The amount of RAM that comes with every dedicated server that we provide is sufficient enough even for extremely resource-demanding web programs. The memory will be readily available for your websites and any other software you install on the hosting server at all times, so even when at some point you use a fraction of the resources you have, we shall never alter the hardware configuration you have ordered. All of the components are examined before the machine is constructed, including the RAM sticks, to make sure that you shall get a flawlessly performing server that can guarantee the best possible performance for your websites. The amount of physical memory that you have will be listed along with the full hosting server configuration specifications within your billing CP.
