Features

Everything you need, nothing you don't.

Parallel by Design

Every core on your machine works in concert. The architecture is thread-safe from the ground up, not bolted on as an afterthought.

  • Fully multi-threaded chunk loading and world streaming
  • Lock-free data structures where it matters
  • Scales linearly with available cores

Zero Friction

Connect with any vanilla Minecraft client. Import your existing worlds. Install with a single command. No mods, no patches, no hoops.

  • Standard Minecraft protocol compatibility
  • Import existing world saves directly
  • One-command install on Linux, macOS, and Windows

Built to Extend

An Entity Component System at the core gives you a powerful, flexible foundation. Build what you want without fighting the server.

  • Plugin system with a rich API surface *
  • ECS architecture for maximum flexibility
  • Modify and extend any server behavior *

* The plugin system is currently in development and not yet generally available.

Performance

Numbers don't lie.

Early benchmarks show what happens when you replace a JVM with bare-metal Rust.

0×
Faster Chunk Loading
Multi-threaded world streaming delivers chunks to players significantly faster than single-threaded Java servers.
0%
Less Memory
Rust's zero-cost abstractions and lack of garbage collection keep memory usage a fraction of JVM-based servers.
0×
Faster Startup
No JVM warmup or class loading overhead. Native binaries start serving players in under a second.

* Benchmarks are from internal testing and may vary. FerrumC is experimental software.
