Introducing Nodecraft Lite - Budget Server Hosting
Our new product, Nodecraft Lite, offers the same high-quality server hosting experience at lower costs.
Unlike Nodecraft Pro game servers that run 24/7, Nodecraft Lite Servers are only online when players actively use them.
Server owners are given a password-protected Wake & Play Share Link to share with anyone to wake the server from hibernation.
For a full list of feature differences between our Pro and Lite packages, check out the chart above labeled "Budget or Premium?".
The Pixelmon & Nodecraft Partnership
Pixelmon has partnered with Nodecraft since 2016 as the Official Game Server Host. Even if you haven't created a game server with Nodecraft, you've connected to our servers to download Pixelmon, as Nodecraft provides the CDN for the Pixelmon launcher, updates, and downloads.
Pixelmon Server Hosting with Built In UI for Configuration
Pixelmon server hosting is easy with Nodecraft intuitive control panel. Easily change Minecraft and Pixelmon settings directly from the server control panel's UI without needing to access the config files!

Low Latency (No Lag) Servers with DDoS Protection
We're gamers too, and we know that nothing is more frustrating than lag and crashes.
Unlike other Minecraft server hosting providers, we make sure not to overburden our servers— this means we average only 12 customers per device. This allows your instance to access more CPU cores, disk IOs, and RAM. More power per user means you will have protection against the common headaches of lag and crashes.
- 3.8+ GHz Processor (CPU)
Our Pixelmon servers primarily use an Intel® Xeon® E-2174G or equivalent.
- 64GB ECC RAM
Error correcting and highly clocked, this RAM is deployed for high speed performance and stability on your Pixelmon server.
- Enterprise Grade Solid State Drives (SSD)
We use Enterprise SSDs to power all customer Pixelmon servers.
- Enterprise Grade Hard Disk
We host our game servers on the SSD, but backups, the OS, and other files not required by your Pixelmon server are run on standard disks.
- DDoS Protection and High Performance Network
DDoS attacks are a constant threat to game hosting, whether it's a Pixelmon server or any other game you want to play. Our network is built for network attack resilience.
- Linux OS
We've built our entire infrastructure on top of a Linux ecosystem to focus on the performance, security, and stability of your Pixelmon server.

Customer Reviews:
Still on the fence? Here's some nice stuff people have said about us.
"I've never had anything but the best experience with Nodecraft. Their support and teams are always there to help you out. The new panels are amazing and intuitive. 100% recommend."
"The user interface on the website is extremely easy to use while still being complex enough to get creative. Almost every question I've had was already answered in the Knowledge Base. The one time I have had an issue requiring staff assistance they were very helpful and some the issue in a short amount of time."
"When I reached out for help with adding mods to a dedicated serve, the tech that helped me went above and beyond with not only adding the ones I requested, but took the liberty of troubleshooting a compatibility issue when there was an error"
"I was trying to get a pretty extensive ModPack set up on a server, and I have practically no experience in the matter, but with the real-time chat feature, in about 15 minutes of work back and forth, I was helped cleaning up the ModPack and got it up and working!
It was a great experience and was done very well and professionally."

Do you provide dedicated IPs for Pixelmon Servers?
Nodecraft offers two products: Nodecraft Pro and Nodecraft Lite. Nodecraft Pro servers are issued a dedicated IP address that will only be used by one customer at a time and will only change if the server is archived, the service is ended, or in the rare case that a server requires changing nodes.
We also provide a DNS Hostname for all server subscriptions in Nodecraft Pro and Nodecraft Lite, which can be used interchangeably in most games. -
What is an instance?
Nodecraft allows users to save and swap between games and modpacks by utilizing the server instances available to each plan. These instances can be thought of like save slots that are able to hold a game server's files in a saved state for you to pop back into your server to play later.
You can learn more about that in this article. -

Nodecraft does not limit player slots on your server, so you can have as many player slots as the game allows!
