Running a Factorio server
A Factorio server spends its time on one thing: simulating the factory, every tick, on a single thread. That is why the useful measure is UPS rather than player count — a four-person save with a sprawling late-game base asks far more of the hardware than a dozen people on a young map. Mods have to match on every client, saves move across as a single file, and autosaves run from the first boot.
How much RAM do you need?
A guide, not a limit — you can change plan later without losing your world.
Getting started
Factorio is bound by single-thread speed, so a fast core matters more than a large one. Size the RAM for the save you expect to end up with, then pick from our 18 locations.
The headless server always runs from a save file. Upload one from your local saves folder, or have the server generate a fresh map with the terrain settings you choose.
Put mods in the mods folder and list them in mod-list.json. Joining players are prompted to sync, so stay on versions the mod portal still offers for download.
server-settings.json carries the name, description, password, visibility and admin list. Autosaves are already on. Share the address, or list the server publicly with your Factorio account.
Turn one server into two, for the same money
Need a database, a test server or a second world? Split RAM off the server you already have. You are re-allocating memory you already pay for, so the total barely moves — no second order, no migration.

Same world, same players, same address.
MariaDB
A database server of your own.

A real database, not a shared one
Split off a database and you get your own MariaDB, PostgreSQL or MongoDB server — its own RAM, its own storage, its own version. Not a schema on a box shared with a thousand other people.
Dedicated RAM and CPU. A heavy query on someone else's database can't slow yours down.
MariaDB, PostgreSQL or MongoDB, each with every version worth running — choose at creation, keep it until you decide otherwise.
Create databases and users, browse tables and run queries from the browser.
Point your plugins at it over the private network — no public exposure needed.
Splitting is done from your server's page once it is running — nothing to order.

A global network of high-performance nodes, so you get the best possible ping no matter where your players are.
DDoS protection, included
Every server sits behind always-on filtering at the network edge. Attack traffic is dropped before it reaches your node, so your players stay connected and you are not billed extra for the privilege.
Nothing to enable, configure or buy as an add-on. Active from the moment your server is created.
Volumetric traffic is dropped upstream of your node, so your CPU and RAM keep serving players.
Rules are tuned for game protocols, so real players are not caught alongside the attack traffic.
Mitigation starts automatically. If something does get through, support can see it and respond.
Powered by a 10Gbps network
Every node sits on a 10Gbps uplink with direct routes into the major exchanges, so traffic reaches your players over as few hops as possible. Less distance, fewer transits, lower and steadier ping.
Direct peering with Tier 1 networks and major exchanges. Availability varies by location.
Same infrastructure, every game
