How much RAM does your Minecraft server need?

Setup & protection
Flexible setup — with free DDoS filtering
Pterodactyl via App Installer (beta)
The app installer can automate supported installation steps for Pterodactyl on a compatible VPS. It is in beta and installations may fail. Features such as instances, backups and the console are then provided by Pterodactyl and depend on your configuration.
For Minecraft we recommend a KVM VPS: full virtualization gives you your own guest kernel and an isolated VM. The configuration and app overview catalog show offered operating-system images and compatible applications. With sufficient resources, you can also run a TeamSpeak server on the same machine.
DDoS filtering and Frankfurt server location
Game servers are a frequent target of DDoS attacks. At noez, DDoS filtering with up to 1 Tbit/s of filtering capacity is active on every server at no extra cost. Actual effectiveness depends on the attack and its routes.
Our servers run on our own hardware in premium data centers in Frankfurt am Main. Network paths are often short for players in Germany, Austria and Switzerland, but actual latency depends on the connection and route.
Several established payment methods
We offer several payment methods and add no separate noez surcharge. Availability is shown at checkout; independent fees from external providers may still apply.
