Additional RAM
Discover exactly what ‘additional RAM’ implies pertaining to dedicated servers and Virtual Private Servers and exactly how you'll be able to add more RAM to your server.
Whenever an application is executed on a web server, it's loaded into the physical memory. In the event that you run a resource-demanding script, or if you just add more scripts on your websites and you get plenty of visitors, you may encounter a scenario where your Virtual Private Server has too little memory to run all the apps and freezes because of this, which means that your Internet sites will stop functioning effectively and that the site visitors shall start seeing error messages. To avoid this type of a scenario, you can take advantage of the RAM upgrade that we are offering and increase the amount of physical memory you can use without changing the entire plan. That way, you'll be able to pay just for the system resources you actually need instead of for additional disk space or higher Central processing unit speeds that you will not really use, for instance. With the upgrade, you can ensure the faultless functioning of your sites, which also means a better experience for your visitors.
Additional RAM in VPS Servers
You'll be able to add more RAM to your VPS servers regardless of the plan that you have chosen, even if it's a high-end one. The upgrade comes in increments of 128 MB, so you will be able to add as much RAM as you require at any given time, taking advantage of the overall flexibility of our system. The amount of memory that you order will be assigned to your existing virtual web server, so you will not have to carry out anything on your end. You won't detect any downtime on your sites, because the VPS shall not be switched off or rebooted for the additional memory to be allocated to it. The upgrade may be ordered either during the signup process - if you know upfront that you shall need it, or later via the billing area - in case you need it after you have started using the hosting server. In any case, adding more physical memory takes only a couple of mouse clicks and due to the fact that all VPS accounts are set up on potent hosting servers, there will always be plenty of free memory to make certain that any one of the virtual hosting servers can be upgraded as much as required at any time.
