RAM is an abbreviation for Random Access Memory. This is a sort of computer memory, that, unlike other storage devices like hard disks or DVDs, permits the data to be accessed directly without reading the previous content saved within it. Every time an app is started, it is stored in the RAM, since it may be accessed much quicker than if it was read from another media. In terms of the web hosting service itself, more RAM means that more web apps can run at the same time on a given web server, particularly if they are resource-demanding and are accessed by a large amount of people at the same time. Different from a shared web hosting solution in which the resources of a certain account can be flexible and quite often depend on what other end users consume as well, a VPS offers a guaranteed amount of RAM which you can use always. That memory is allocated to one web server only and won't be used by other clients even when it's not being used.
