Guaranteed RAM
Discover the distinction between normal and guaranteed RAM in the web hosting community.
RAM, which is short for Random Access Memory, is a computer storage media that could be accessed much faster than a hard disk, as the data can be read randomly, skipping the bytes before the needed information is reached. On a server, the RAM is used to load scripts and web applications after they are executed, so the more RAM you can use, the more programs you'll be able to run concurrently and the more people will be able to surf your Internet sites without effect on the site’s/server’s overall performance. Different from a disk drive, however, the RAM is used for short-term storage purposes, since the data is lost once the power is shut off. If you use a shared web hosting account, the physical memory your scripts can use may be limited and could change depending on what the other customers on the same server use. Through a virtual or a dedicated server, however, you shall have a set amount of RAM that will not be used by anybody else even if you don't use it at a certain time.
Guaranteed RAM in Dedicated Servers
All our dedicated server packages come with a great deal of physical memory, that will allow you to run very heavy web applications with no challenges. We use new and carefully tested hardware components when we set up a new server to guarantee that there will never be any troubles of any sort. The RAM memory isn't an exception and if you purchase a dedicated server, we will ensure that you get the best functionality possible from the configuration you have selected. Even if we determine that you're not using the full capacity of the web server, we shall not alter the hardware in any way, so the total amount of RAM that'll be at your disposal shall always be the same. You can easily check the configuration, including the physical memory, within your billing Control Panel at any time.
