High-performance Minecraft hosting, Java and Bedrock

Minecraft is deceptively demanding to host well. The server runs most of its world simulation — mob AI, redstone, hoppers, entity ticks and chunk loading — on a single thread, so raw single-core clock speed matters far more than a huge core count. That is why we run Minecraft on high-frequency AMD Ryzen and Intel hardware instead of the low-clock, densely-packed server chips budget hosts rely on. The payoff is higher, steadier TPS on exactly the workloads that cause lag: large redstone farms, big player counts and heavy modpacks.

Both editions are supported. On Java, the panel's jar switcher lets you move your server between Vanilla, PaperMC, Purpur, Fabric and Forge — and pick the exact game version — from a dropdown, with no file re-uploads. Migrating a survival world onto Paper for better performance, or spinning up a Fabric instance to try a mod, is a couple of clicks. Bedrock realms for console and mobile players deploy the same way, and Geyser lets you bridge the two if you want everyone on one plugin server.

Everything is driven from our in-house panel, a fork of Pterodactyl extended well past stock. The one-click installer pulls plugins from Hangar and SpigotMC and mods and modpacks from Modrinth and CurseForge, every plan includes a free MySQL database for plugins like LuckPerms and CoreProtect, and you keep full control of your JVM flags so you can run tuned Aikar flags for the best garbage collection.

Why host Minecraft with DedicatedMC

Hardware Minecraft actually wants

High-clock Ryzen and Intel cores for single-thread TPS, NVMe storage for fast chunk loads, and no overselling — the nodes are not stacked past what they can serve.

A panel built for Minecraft

Jar switching across Vanilla, Paper, Purpur, Fabric and Forge, a one-click plugin and modpack installer, a full file manager and scheduled restarts — no CLI required.

Free MySQL on every plan

LuckPerms, CoreProtect, Essentials and any other SQL-backed plugin connect to a database you manage from the panel — no paid add-on, no external service.

Backups, DDoS protection and support

Automatic offsite backups of your world, enterprise DDoS filtering, and 24/7 Discord support that puts you in touch with the team that built the platform.

Getting your server dialled in

Start by choosing your jar. For most communities PaperMC is the sensible default — it keeps parity with vanilla behaviour while fixing performance and exploit issues. Pick Fabric or Forge only if you are running mods, since plugins and mods are not interchangeable. Set your game version in the same dropdown and restart to apply.

Size your RAM to the workload. A vanilla or lightly-plugged SMP is happy on a few gigabytes; large plugin networks and CurseForge modpacks need noticeably more, and the modpack's own page usually states a recommended figure. Once your server is up, apply a tuned set of Aikar flags in the startup configuration — they change how the JVM handles garbage collection and keep TPS steadier under load.

From there, install your plugins or modpack through the one-click installer, point LuckPerms or CoreProtect at your free MySQL database, whitelist and op players from the live console, and add a scheduled task for a nightly restart to clear memory. If you are moving from another host, the automated importer brings your world and configs across for you.

Looking for a specific modpack?

We host 25 of the most popular CurseForge and Modrinth packs with a one-click install — ATM10, RLCraft, Better MC, Cobblemon and more, each with the RAM it actually needs.

Open the importer in your panel and tell it where your current server lives. That's the only thing we need from you.

02

We move everything

Worlds, plugins, mods and configs transfer automatically. No zipping files, no FTP client, no support ticket.

03

Start playing

Your server comes up on our hardware with everything where you left it. Update your players' IP and you're done.

Minecraft Hosting Questions

Do you support both Java and Bedrock Edition?

Yes. You can deploy a Java server or a Bedrock server from the panel. Java gives you the full plugin and modding ecosystem; Bedrock is the right choice if your players are on consoles or mobile. If you want console players on a plugin server, you can also run a proxy like Geyser on Java.

Can I run PaperMC, Purpur, Fabric or Forge — and switch between them?

All of them. The panel has a jar switcher that lets you change your server type between Vanilla, PaperMC, Purpur, Fabric and Forge, and pick the exact Minecraft version, from a dropdown. There is no re-uploading of files or hunting for the right build — select it and restart.

How do I install plugins and modpacks?

The built-in installer pulls plugins from Hangar and SpigotMC and mods and modpacks from Modrinth and CurseForge. Find what you want, click install, and it is dropped into the right folder for you. You can still upload jars manually through the file manager if you prefer.

What is a dedicated Minecraft server?

A dedicated Minecraft server is a server that runs on hardware reserved for you alone, rather than sharing a machine's CPU with other customers. You get consistent performance — no lag spikes caused by noisy neighbours — plus full control over RAM, storage and player slots. DedicatedMC builds every plan on dedicated high-clock AMD Ryzen and Intel hardware with no overselling, and offers full bare-metal machines for large networks.

How much RAM do I need?

A vanilla or lightly-plugged survival server for a handful of friends runs comfortably on a few gigabytes. Large plugin networks and heavy CurseForge modpacks want considerably more — modpacks in particular are memory-hungry, and their page usually lists a recommended figure. If you outgrow a plan, upgrades are pro-rated so you only pay the difference.

Do I get a MySQL database for plugins like LuckPerms and CoreProtect?

Every plan includes a free MySQL database you manage from the panel. Plugins such as LuckPerms, CoreProtect and Essentials that store data in SQL connect straight to it — no external database service required.

Can I set my own JVM startup flags?

Yes. You have full control over your startup flags, so you can run tuned Aikar flags for better garbage-collection behaviour and steadier TPS instead of being locked to a fixed configuration.

Can I move my existing world and plugins over?

Yes. Our automated server importer handles the migration for you, and the team offers free migration assistance if you would rather we did it. Your world, plugins and configs come across intact — open a ticket on Discord and we will help.
