RAM, that means Random Access Memory, is a computer storage media that can be accessed much quicker than a disk drive, due to the fact that the data can be read randomly, skipping the bytes before the needed info is reached. On a web server, the RAM is employed to load scripts and web programs when they are executed, so the more RAM you may use, the more applications you shall be able to run concurrently and the more people will be able to check out your Internet sites without effect on the site’s/server’s performance. In contrast to a disk drive, however, the RAM is used for temporary storage purposes, due to the fact that the information is lost the moment the power is shut off. If you use a shared web hosting account, the physical memory your scripts may use may be limited and might change based upon what the other customers on the same hosting server use. Using a virtual or a dedicated server, on the other hand, you'll have a set amount of RAM that will not be used by others even when you do not use it at a particular time.
Guaranteed RAM in VPS Servers
When you obtain a VPS server from us, you'll have a allocated amount of RAM readily available always. We create the VPS accounts on highly effective hardware nodes with lots of physical memory, so once a new virtual server is set up, the RAM is allotted entirely to it in accordance with the exact features of the particular plan. We never re-allocate RAM from a VPS that doesn't use all of its system resources to one which needs more resources, so you'll be able to use the features of your package deal at their full capability at any time. We create only several VPS accounts on a physical server and we make certain that it provides an adequate amount of memory to allow all the clients on it to upgrade the RAM their hosting servers are using without affecting the other accounts.
Guaranteed RAM in Dedicated Servers
The amount of RAM that comes with every dedicated server which we offer you is sufficient enough even for very resource-demanding web programs. The memory shall be available for your websites and every other software that you install on the hosting server at all times, so if at some point you use just a fraction of the system resources you have, we shall never alter the hardware configuration which you have ordered. All the components are subjected to testing before the server is built, including the RAM sticks, to make certain that you'll get a flawlessly performing machine that will ensure the best possible performance for your sites. The amount of physical memory you have will be listed along with the full server configuration specifications inside your billing CP.
