Guaranteed RAM
What precisely the real difference between the hosting industry-related phrases ?regular RAM? and ?guaranteed RAM??
RAM, that stands for Random Access Memory, is a computer storage media which is accessed considerably faster than a hard disk, as the info 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 after they are executed, so the more RAM you may use, the more applications you shall be able to run at the same time and the more people shall be able to explore your websites without any effect on the site’s/server’s overall performance. Different from a disk drive, however, the RAM is employed for non permanent storage purposes, because the data is lost the moment the power is shut off. In case you use a shared web hosting account, the physical memory that your scripts are able to use may be limited and may change according to what the some other clients on the same web server use. Through a virtual or a dedicated server, however, you will have a guaranteed amount of RAM that won't be used by anybody else even when you don't use it at a certain time.

Guaranteed RAM in VPS Servers
The physical memory that you will get with each
VPS server which we provide is guaranteed and shall be readily available consistently even when you don't use it all for a long length of time. Every VPS account provides fixed system resources and runs in an isolated container apart from other accounts on the physical machine, so even in case some account starts running out of memory, we shall never assign some of your memory to that account. We also never distribute the entire physical memory on the hardware node among the virtual accounts set up on it, in order to guarantee that it will never run out of memory. This way, there'll always be free RAM if you wish to upgrade your package and we guarantee the flawless overall performance of the physical server.
