What happens to a VPS when it runs out of RAM

Random access memory, or RAM, is the resource where a server stores data that programs need to operate “right now.” This includes website code, databases, cache, operating system processes, and system services. Unlike disk storage, RAM works very fast but has a limited capacity. On a VPS, the amount of RAM is fixed by the tariff plan, and the server cannot automatically use more memory than it has been allocated. As a result, the stability of a VPS directly depends on whether there is enough RAM to handle the current load.

When Saving on Servers Becomes a Strategic Mistake

At the start of any project, the desire to save money seems logical. The business has not yet begun to generate stable income, the load is low, and the server appears to be just a technical background element that does not directly affect sales. That is why many companies choose the cheapest server solutions or minimal configurations “for now.” The problem is that a server is not a one-time purchase but the foundation of a digital business. Mistakes made at this stage rarely show up immediately, but they almost always become apparent when the project begins to grow.

What Is an API and Why It Exists in Almost Every Service

API stands for Application Programming Interface, which is a software interface for interaction between different systems. Simply put, an API is a set of clear rules that allow one program to communicate with another, send a request, and receive a response. End users usually do not see APIs and rarely think about their existence, yet they use them constantly. Logging in with Google, paying by card on a website, displaying the weather, exchange rates, or delivery status — all of this works thanks to APIs.

For Which Tasks a Dedicated Server Is an Excessive Solution

A dedicated server is often perceived as a universal solution for any online project. It is associated with maximum reliability, full control, and performance headroom “for growth.” However, in practice there are many situations where such infrastructure is excessive. In these cases, it does not provide real advantages but instead creates additional costs, complicates administration, and can even slow down project development.

How Background Processes Consume VPS Resources

Servers with a high load indicator, background processes in the form of service windows, and overheating and overconsumption of VPS resources icons. — Impact of internal system processes on VPS load

VPS is often perceived as a “clean” server where all resources are available only to a specific website or application. The user expects that if nothing unnecessary is running, the CPU, memory, and disk will be used minimally. In reality, even in a state of relative idle, a server is never completely empty. Dozens of processes constantly run in the background, invisible at first glance, but it is precisely they that gradually consume VPS resources.

IBM Power11 as a server platform for the new AI reality

IBM Power11 platform is focused on working with intensive computing and modern AI tasks

Artificial intelligence has gradually ceased to be an experimental technology and has become part of everyday business practice. Today, AI is used for big data analytics, process automation, forecasting, and language and image processing. All of this creates new requirements for server infrastructure. If previously the main focus was on stability and data storage, now performance, scalability, and the ability to handle constantly growing workloads play a key role. It is in this context that IBM introduced Power11 — a new generation of servers designed to operate in the conditions of the AI reality.

Why IP Reputation Is Crucial for VPS

When a website, mail server, or API runs on a VPS, it receives its own IP address — a unique numerical identifier on the network. For internet services, this address has its own reputation, similar to a company’s business reputation. IP reputation is formed based on the server’s behavior: what requests it sends, which services run on it, and whether spam, phishing, or other suspicious activity is detected from it. A poor IP reputation can result in emails not reaching recipients, websites being blocked by browsers, and external services refusing to work with it.

Is “Fail-Proof” Hosting Possible and Why 100% Uptime Is a Myth

A worried user thinks about 100% uptime and possible server failure. — 100% uptime is unattainable even for the most stable servers

In today’s digital environment, every business wants to be sure that its website or application is always available. Users do not tolerate delays, and companies understand that even a few minutes of downtime can lead to financial losses, reduced trust, or indexing issues in search engines. That is why VPS and dedicated server services often highlight uptime — the percentage of time the infrastructure operates without interruption. However, in real engineering, an absolute 100% uptime is unattainable. Even if the servers are expensive, the data center is certified, and the network is fully redundant, physical and organizational limitations still exist. To understand why “fail-proof” hosting is more of a marketing term, it is important to examine how VPS and dedicated servers actually work.

How Server Speed Affects Website Performance in the Mobile Internet World

Servers, global network and smartphone with an up arrow symbolizing the speed of websites. — How server speed determines the performance of sites on the mobile Internet

In today’s digital environment, users increasingly interact with websites through smartphones rather than computers. This means that loading speed becomes critically important not only for comfort but also for a business’s ability to retain customers. Mobile internet, even in 4G or 5G formats, is more prone to fluctuations in speed and stability, so the servers powering a website must be highly efficient. How quickly they respond to a request directly influences whether a user stays on the page and completes their action — making a purchase, browsing a catalog, filling out a form, or reading content.

What Makes Turbo VPS Different from a Regular VPS

Virtual servers have long been the foundation of modern online projects. They provide flexibility, high performance, and the ability to scale without significant costs. However, a new class of solutions has emerged on the market — Turbo VPS, which immediately draws attention with its increased speed and stability. At first glance, it may seem like just a marketing name for a regular VPS, but in practice, the difference between them is substantial. To understand why Turbo VPS works faster and more consistently, it’s important to examine which technologies deliver this performance boost and what the user gains in real-world operation.
