Burstable and Guaranteed memory on VPS

admin — Thu, 05 Feb 2009 15:38:45 +0000

One of major benefit of getting a VPS is that you can have Guaranteed memory aswell as Burstable memory at your disposal. Guaranteed Memory can be defined as the usable memory which is allotted to your VPS. Such memory is available for you at all time. Also you can have Burstable memory which is set for your webhost for your VPS.
Its a maximum limit for the memory which can be made available for your VPS. Thus for some reason if the allotted guaranteed memory gets exhausted, you can use the memory up to the limit of allotted burstable memory and your VPS would run smoothly. For eg if your webhost have allotted 256mb of guarantee memory and 1024 of burstable memory then you can use remaining 768MB of memory if your guaranteed memory is completely used up. This is a major advantage of getting a VPS hosting account which will ensure your server would run smoothly even if few applications are consuming more RAM. Such burstable RAM can be used when they are in need of any extra memory..
Its always better to have a good guaranteed memory for your server so that your VPS would work properly. This burstable memory is not easily available as it can only be obtained if there is lapse of guaranteed memory for your VPS. You should always look with your webhost for what guaranteed and burstable memory is allotted to your VPS and should check if its sufficient for your applications and scripts.

If you are looking for some cheaper option for dedicated server then you can consider a VPS hosting plan which is much similar to a dedicated server nut have less resources such as diskspace and bandwidth but most important you have root access to your server so it works as if you are working on dedicated server and can install all required softwares you may need to have for your hosting account.

Following are the features of VPS;
*) Less setup time as compare to dedicated servers.
*) Excellent reliability and security.
*) Real root access for your server.

All VPS’s are setup on a highly configured node which are entirely isolated from every other server which is setup on same node. You can’t access servers of other users and no one other then you can access yours, thus even though all servers are hosted on same node no one is aware of these servers hosted along with your server on same node. Thus your server is much secure and no one can log into your server or can play with it. You have total security for your account so VPS website Hosting is much more secure and reliable which your website deserves.

Hosting industry if growing at rapid past then ever.
We used to be happy with our shared hosting plan few years ago but now it seems that even a highly configured server is insufficient for our hosting need. Few highly traffic site/forums are facing problems even on excellent dedicated server with load balancing technique implemented on it.
now-a-days shared hosting is left only for normal low traffic sites. If you want some good hosting experience you can opt for VPS technology which is ideal solution between Shared and dedicated server hosting environment.

What is VPS ?
VPS stands for ‘Virtual Private Server’ As the name suggest these are virtual servers which are created on highly configured Node using virtualization technology. You can create number of different Virtual Environment on a single node.
Every VPS Node logically shares all of it’s resources such as Memory (RAM), Bandwidth, processor, Diskspace. VPS hosting can be considered as an low cost option for getting dedicated server environment.
