How much memory
Four GB carries a vanilla or lightly plugged survival world for a small group. Eight GB is the right size for a plugin server with a few dozen plugins or a moderate Fabric modpack. Large modpacks and populated networks want 16 GB or more, because Java will use what you give it.
The server itself
What a Minecraft server runs here
Every Minecraft server is installed from a maintained template on an AMD Ryzen 9 9950X node with DDR5 memory and NVMe Gen4 storage in a RAID 1 mirror.
- Templates
- Paper, Vanilla, Fabric, Bedrock
- Default port
- 25565 Java, 19132 UDP Bedrock
- Plugins and mods
- Uploaded over SFTP or the file manager
- Database
- MySQL included for plugins that want one
- Players
- Limited by your plan, not by a slot cap
Mods, configuration and control
Running a Minecraft server day to day
- 01
Paper plugins
Drop a jar into the plugins directory and restart from the console. Spigot and Bukkit plugins load on Paper, and the console shows the startup log in full when one of them misbehaves.
- 02
Fabric and custom modpacks
The Fabric template accepts a mods directory you upload yourself, so a CurseForge or Modrinth pack installs without asking anyone for permission. Allocate memory for the pack, not for the vanilla game.
- 03
Bedrock for console and mobile
The Bedrock template listens on UDP 19132 for Windows, mobile and console clients. It is a separate server rather than a bridge, so pick it at checkout if that is the audience.
- 04
Worlds on mirrored NVMe
Chunk loading reads from NVMe Gen4 drives in a RAID 1 mirror. Scheduled backups copy the world off the node and are configured in the client area.
