Burstable RAM
Burstable RAM can be provided to users of Virtual Private Servers.
Each VPS has a guaranteed amount of RAM that it's able to use. Sometimes sites will exceed the allotted amount of guaranteed RAM available. Burstable RAM is provided to a site during times of high usage or traffic. This RAM is not in use by any VPS on a server and can be allocated to any VPS that may need it as long as it is available.
Burstable RAM is never guaranteed to be available and should not be constantly depended upon for Virtual Private Server operation.
