Understanding Server Hibernation

Is My Server 24/7?

Yes — your server is online 24/7 and always ready to play. We use a system called MSH (Minecraft Server Hibernation) to keep performance smooth and fair for everyone.

What is Hibernation?

When no players are online for a while, your server automatically goes to sleep (hibernates) to save system resources. Your world, plugins, and settings are 100% saved. The server is still considered "online" and wakes up instantly when a player tries to join.

Think of it like sleep mode on your computer — fast, safe, and reliable.

What Happens When I Join?

1. The system detects your join request.
2. Your server automatically starts in the background.
3. You are connected as soon as the server is ready (usually 20–30 seconds).

The entire process is fully automatic. Just connect and play!

Why Do We Use Hibernation?

Hibernation is the key to offering free 24/7 hosting to thousands of users fairly and efficiently. By putting idle servers to sleep, we:

• Reduce lag and improve overall platform performance.
• Ensure your server is always available without wasting resources.
• Keep our service free and sustainable for everyone.

Can I Disable Hibernation?

Hibernation is a required feature on all free plans to keep our service stable. If you need a server that runs continuously without sleeping, consider our premium plans.
