Additional RAM
Understand exactly what ‘additional RAM’ signifies pertaining to dedicated servers and Virtual Private Servers and in what ways it is possible to add extra RAM to your server.
Whenever a program is executed on a web server, it is loaded into the physical memory. In case you run a resource-demanding script, or if you just add more scripts on your sites and you get loads of visitors, you might encounter a scenario where your Virtual Private Server has insufficient memory to run all the apps and freezes as a result, which means your Internet sites will stop working properly and that the website visitors will start seeing error messages. To avoid such a scenario, you'll be able to take advantage of the RAM upgrade that we're offering and increase the amount of physical memory available without changing the entire plan. This way, you may pay only for the resources which you actually need instead of for additional disk space or higher CPU speeds which you shall not really use, for example. With the upgrade, you can ensure the sleek performance of your sites, which also means a better experience for your visitors.
Additional RAM in VPS
Additional physical memory may be added to any one of the Linux VPS packages we offer, including the top-end ones, therefore your websites shall work flawlessly constantly. The upgrade is available both on the order page and inside the billing area, so you can add it whenever you need it: before your server is prepared - if you know your Internet sites will require additional memory, or after the machine is working - in case you notice that the supplied memory is not sufficient for all the sites to operate adequately. In the second case, the amount of RAM which you obtain shall be added to the existing configuration with no activity required on your end and without any Virtual Private Server shutdown or reboot, so there will not be any downtime for your sites. The upgrade is supplied in increments of 128 MB and you will be able to include as much memory as you'd like, since the physical machines provide enough system resources to permit the virtual servers to be upgraded significantly.
