Need VPS(/Dedicated) for Minecraft

Hi, I'm looking to host a Minecraft network (multiple gameservers, with Docker). Most of my players would be located in The Netherlands, so that location is preferred. Of course I also need a good CPU, fast storage and good DDoS protection. I think I need about 4-6 fast cores, 12-24GB RAM and >60GB of storage. I need a VPS or dedicated server, because "normal" Minecraft hosting won't fit my needs for scaling.
What would be a good company to host this at? My budget is about 20 euro/month max, but I'd like to see it turn out lower.

worldstream in Netherland but you need to increase your budget.
Another country that's close is not a big deal, if you stay in Europe
I can meet that requirements easy. Also im sure that bunch of others can.
Just not for that budget.
Atleast not for a Dedicated Server.
Would increase budget
php-friends.de
With this budget, go for Dyjix.eu
(https://dyjix.eu/panel/cart.php?a=confproduct&i=0&language=english)
32 GB RAM
8 vCore
200GB HDD
250Mbps bandwidth
For €12.99/month
hetzner dedicated server auction & their services cloud also provides in Netherland & Finland.
for gaming NVMe SSD only you must choose.
if go with SATA HDD then wordstream in your budget also but NVMe Recommended for gamming.

Your budget is on the low side (gierige Hollanders) and it probably won't get any lower.
If I were you I'd drop @MikeA a line. Very respectable provider and specialized in Minecraft. Servers are in the UK or France and DDOS protection is good.
Hi please give us a try we can surely help you
Hi,
we can offer our NVMe vServer M
4 dedicated cores
16 GB RAM
80 GB NVMe-SSD
20 TB Traffic
Location is Germany
For 18 EUR per month incl. VAT.
Ensure prior to going with any provider that the CPU they are using has a high single thread rating. Ask them for the CPU their server is running and look up the rating on this site: https://www.cpubenchmark.net/ anything over a 1550 rating should work.
CPU is VERY important regarding Minecraft, I believe it may be hard to find a really good CPU VPS within your budget however, I wish you the best of luck.
Additionally, make sure the cores for the VPS are dedicated to you, not shared across multiple users.
This is very important. I see Avoro here and PHP-Friends recommenced. These are both very good providers, however they tend to go for a high core number and relatively low clockspeed. You’d be better of with a 3GHz+ cpu.
I hope you got what you looking for if not, we use AMD EPYC CPU's & NVMe SSD's.
We are new here & can probably do something under your budget.
4 x AMD EPYC 7302p [email protected] (fair use)
80GB NVMe RAID-10 Disk Space
12GB ECC DDR4 RAM
12TB Transfer p/Month @ 1gbit
1XIPv4 & Unlimited IPv6
Amsterdam, NL (http://ams.lg.webhorizon.in)
£19/mo. recurring for you.
Apart from Monthly payments, I can offer a 24-48 hours money-back guarantee so you can see if it works out for you!
Please ping me if interested or need to customize anything.
Regards,
Abdullah
You should get a dedicated server, because if you have problems with a normal MC host, you will probably have more problems on a VPS unless you have 2+ dedicated cores on a modern CPU.
@Vova1234 / abcvg.net
Might want to try a Hetzner auction server in that case @jensjeflensje. Your budget kind of fits.
@exception0x876 has a server in the Netherlands
8 Core
32 GB RAM
100 GB SSD
15.99$ -https://www.wishosting.com/order/config/index/VPS/?group_id=2&pricing_id=112
I think it would be perfect for you.
That seems like a good option. Is their ddos protection any good?
The OP need to add €300.00 EUR Monthly for
Anti-DDoS protection with that provider.
What do you mean by OP?
I luckily never had it tested, but they use Arbour so it should be sufficient.
SoYouStart Game server might be of interest as well, bit more expensive but very good DDOS-protection: https://www.soyoustart.com/ie/offers/1801sysgame04.xml
You recommend the provide which charge extra for DDOS protection as OP has limited budget and required DDOS protection I don’t think your recommendation is great as your recommended provider charge €300.00 EUR per month for protection and clearly shown at the checkout process.
Edited: Now the checkout process changed, so option is visible for dedicated servers.
Protection is already available on VPS.
Only Dyjix dedicated aren't protected by default!
A lot of servers use https://tcpshield.com/ for DDoS protection
