RAM is an abbreviation for Random Access Memory. This is a kind of computer memory, which, in contrast to other storage devices including hard disks or DVDs, permits the info to be accessed directly without reading the previous content saved inside it. Anytime an application is started, it is stored in the RAM, since it can be accessed much faster than if it was read from another media. With regards to the hosting service itself, more RAM means that more web applications can operate concurrently on a particular hosting server, particularly when they are resource-demanding and are accessed by a large amount of people simultaneously. Not like a shared web hosting plan where the system resources of a particular account could be flexible and frequently depend on what other users consume also, a VPS includes a guaranteed amount of RAM you can use all the time. That memory is allocated to one web server only and won't be used by other customers even when it's not being used.

Guaranteed RAM in VPS Hosting

When you decide to host your Internet sites on a virtual private server acquired from us, the amount of RAM that you'll get with it will be guaranteed and shall be available all of the time no matter what. The VPS accounts are set up on effective servers and when your virtual server is set up, the RAM memory offered with the particular plan will be "locked", so even in case you use a part of it ultimately while another VPS account is using virtually all of its resources, we will not assign 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 existing account completely. You'll be able to upgrade either the whole package or just the server’s RAM with a couple of mouse clicks within the billing Control Panel.
