Why Choose Ray Hosting for your Minecraft Server?
AMD Ryzen 9 hardware, worldwide low-latency network, and robust DDoS protection – we handle the backend, you focus on gameplay.
Vanilla is the base game exactly as Mojang designed it, while PaperMC is a highly optimised fork that drastically improves server performance. Ray Hosting is optimised for both, offering PaperMC for ultimate plugin support or raw Vanilla powered by Ryzen 9 7900 CPUs for purists.
With a reliable hosting control panel, you can easily change your Minecraft Java version. Ray Hosting's automated backups take 7 daily and 4 weekly snapshots to off-site NVMe storage, meaning you can safely upgrade versions with a 1-click rollback.
By default, no. However, by installing the 'GeyserMC' plugin you can enable full cross-play. Ray Hosting makes this seamless with our robust network and free included NVMe MySQL database clusters to sync cross-play data easily.
For a pure vanilla Minecraft Java server with a small group of friends, 2GB to 4GB of RAM is usually sufficient. Ray Hosting's ECC DDR5 memory means you can trust your server to stay stable as you expand up to 6GB.
Self-hosting is free but requires technical knowledge for port forwarding and maintenance. Ray Hosting provides an enterprise multi-Tbps DDoS shield, 24/7 uptime, and a 24-hour free trial to prove our worth.
Single-core CPU performance is the most important factor. Ray Hosting dominates this with AMD Ryzen 9 7900s at 5.4GHz+, eliminating tick-skipping even with massive player counts.
You can reduce lag by lowering the server's view distance and using plugins like Chunky. With Ray Hosting's bare-metal compute and real-time daemon telemetry, you can precisely track CPU/RAM usage to pinpoint performance hogs.
Yes, you can use a proxy software or plugin called GeyserMC to allow players on consoles and mobile devices to connect. Ray Hosting's Global Edge Network, housed in 15+ Tier-3/Tier-4 datacenters, ensures both Java and Bedrock players experience <30ms latency.
