  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • AuthMeVelocity

    A bridge between your AuthMe Spigot instance and your Velocity proxy.

  • If you run "offline" servers that allow cracked clients to connect, I highly recommend using the plugins AuthMeReloaded and FastLogin. For BungeeCord and its forks you'll also need AuthMeBungee and setup FastLogin for Bungee, or for Velocity use AuthMeVelocity and Velocity-Fast-Login.

  • Velocity-Fast-Login

  • FastLogin

    Checks if a minecraft player has a valid paid account. If so, they can skip offline authentication automatically. (premium auto login)

  • Paper

    The most widely used, high performance Minecraft server that aims to fix gameplay and mechanics inconsistencies

  • Lastly, make sure you stay on top of updates so you don't become exposed to new security issues (such as the infamous Log4Shell vulnerability). Use a well-supported fork such as PaperMC.

  • LuckPerms

    A permissions plugin for Minecraft servers.

  • Then you should consider what players should be allowed on your server and which permissions should they have. You can setup a simple whitelist on any Minecraft server to allow only approved players, but there are more advanced solutions. As an admin you can limit what each player can and can't do with the help of various plugins (e.g. LuckPerms and WorldGuard), as well as setup a world border.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
