Providers For Cheap Dedicated Servers.
Basically, I'm going to make a big network of 10-ish servers each server having around an estimate of 20 players (some may have less, some may have more)
I need a cheap budget server to get me started.
15 - 30 PER Server
Estimated Servers: 10
America or Germany
Java, All Server With Purpur, Connected with a velocity network
$50-$125 US DOLLARS Budget may be extendable

Get a panel hosting, your budget will kinda only get you dedis that suck
I want to have my own panel which is the problem, I want to turn it into like a private hosting not public where I own such % of each server. :)
Then get enough cash for it
Youd probably want 128gb, with a good cpu to handle that many servers it will be like $150-200+
What about a vps?
You want to make a hosting company, you need good dedis
A vps will not be much better price
Honestly you could get a cheap 8/16gb vps and when u get revenue expand to a good dedi
Not much of a company, more of a private thing, I do want a decent server.
Since they will be public servers you don't control you would probably also want ddos protection for the actual machine, which raises the price
Even if you don't sell publicly its still basically a host
I could expand from 2 servers,
Each server containing 6-8 GB, Saving a little bit of spare room for the proxy & lobby.
Starting from 16gb would be a good start
Might be able to get DDOS Protection included, for the time being of the start.
From who? Youd want a good one, everyone advertises ddos protection but in reality only a few host's hold up
And those hosts are expensive
liquidweb has a standered for no cost protects against layer 4 attacks.
You got an ip from them?
Even contabo advertises ddos protection...
No?
Cloudflare also provides free ddos protection.
:fred_huh:
I just checked their asn. They have no ddos provider as upstream, which means is inhouse which means it's probably a cisco asa, that won't hold up against any more than decent attack
That's only for websites, not minecraft servers
Web applications
Just like upioti said
just saw that lol
Minecraft protection from cloudflare directly its absurdly expensive
You can get a decent dedi with hetzner that can run most the stuff for you
a i9 9900k with 128gb ram
It costs me $60 a month and it runs what i need, but i dont host to the public only for friends
Should I start with a AX52?
- AMD Ryzen™ 7 7700
- 64 GB DDR5
- 1 GBit/s port
- 2x 1 TB
$66
from whom?
Hetz
Go with a bit better cpu
more ram as well
10 servers, 30+ players
youd fill that 64 gigs in seconds
True.
I can always upgrade in the future.
AMD Ryzen™ 7 PRO 8700GE
128gb ddr5 ram
AX42
Looks better
and its mid-pricerange too
how much
you didnt list it
do note hetzner is germany / finland iirc
And force all your customers to have a protection service running on top because you don't wanna be getting downed frequently
They didn't mind Germany since it's one of their preferred locations (America / Germany per their original post)
True, just saw that :sad:
