SimpleCloud helps you run a Minecraft server network across one or more machines. Use the dashboard or CLI to create servers, control them, and see their status from one place.

Get started

Open the SimpleCloud Dashboard and sign in. Its setup wizard gives you the command that installs SimpleCloud on your first machine and connects it to your network.

Install SimpleCloud

Connect your first machine and create your first server.

Choose how your servers work

  • A server group creates replaceable servers from shared settings and files. Use groups for proxies, lobbies, and game modes that may need multiple identical servers or automatic scaling.
  • A persistent server is one named server that keeps its own world and files. Use it for a long-running server such as an SMP or build server.
  • A serverhost is a machine on which SimpleCloud runs your Minecraft servers. Add another serverhost when you want to use another machine.
