What is a Paper server?

Paper is by far the most popular server software for Minecraft Java – a fork of Spigot specifically optimized for performance and stability. With Paper, your server runs significantly smoother on the same hardware than on Vanilla or classic Spigot, especially with many players, large worlds or many entities.

The key advantage: Paper ships with countless performance patches – from optimized mob AI to asynchronous chunk generation and smarter tick management. On top of that comes full plugin compatibility with Spigot plugins. You can choose from thousands of plugins on SpigotMC and Modrinth without sacrificing performance.

Paper is the right choice for classic survival servers, RPG projects, minigame servers and anything in between. If your Vanilla server stutters with 20+ players, switching to Paper solves the problem in 95% of cases. Large networks also use Paper as backend servers behind BungeeCord or Velocity.

At Mine-Hoster, you set up your Paper server in seconds. Through our GamePanel, you manage plugins, worlds, configurations and backups with a few clicks – always on the latest Paper version, with DDoS protection and on high-performance hardware.
