RAM, or Random Access Memory, is a form of computer data storage, that allows the information to be read randomly without accessing the preceding bytes before that. That makes the RAM significantly faster than other sorts of storage devices like DVDs or HDDs where all of the information must be read so that you can access particular info. In case you have a shared hosting account, the exact amount of memory which your web programs can use cannot be fixed and may regularly be determined by the free memory which is available on the physical web server. With a standalone web server, however, there is always a minimum amount of physical memory that shall be readily available at all times and will not be allotted to other customers even if it isn't used. That is valid with our virtual and dedicated web servers.
Guaranteed RAM in Dedicated Servers
If you buy one of our dedicated server packages, you shall get a top-notch hosting server with enough RAM to run even a number of resource-demanding web applications with no effect on the overall functionality of any one of them. As we test each hardware component before we use it when we build a server, we shall make perfectly sure that the RAM sticks aren't faulty and that the machine functions flawlessly. The physical memory that you'll get will be available constantly, so even in times where you employ only a part of it for a period of time, we won't change the configuration. You shall be able to check the hardware, including the amount of RAM that you have, within the billing Control Panel.
