RAM, that means Random Access Memory, is a computer storage media that may be accessed considerably faster than a hard disk, due to the fact that the info can be read randomly, skipping the bytes before the needed data is reached. On a web server, the RAM is employed to load scripts and web applications when they are executed, so the more RAM you can use, the more applications you will be able to run concurrently and the more people will be able to check out your Internet sites with no effect on the site’s/server’s performance. In contrast to a disk drive, however, the RAM is used for temporary storage purposes, due to the fact that the information is lost once the power is shut off. If you use a shared web hosting account, the physical memory which your scripts could use may be limited and could change based upon what the some other clients on the same web server use. Using a virtual or a dedicated hosting server, on the other hand, you'll have a fixed amount of RAM that will not be used by others even if you don't use it at a certain time.
