== Technical == Hypixel runs a highly modified version of the Spigot server software. The server uses two types of dedicated machines: one for small [[minigames]] (such as [[SkyWars]] and [[BedWars]]) and the other for larger games (such as UHC). Each dedicated machine runs 20 instances of minigame [[server]]s, while each large game gets 5 instances per machine.<ref>{{cite|url=https://hypixel.net/threads/dev-blog-6-keeping-up-with-the-masses.2251554/|title=Dev Blog #6 - Keeping up with the Masses|date=2019-08-19|author=erosemberg|website=[[Hypixel Forums]]}}</ref> Hypixel uses a custom Slime file format as a replacement to ''[[Minecraft]]''{{'s}} default [[mc:Anvil file format|Anvil file format]] which contains fields and data unnecessary for the server, saving gigabytes of storage space. Additionally, HypixelBlocks3 is a caching system for storing information from ''Minecraft'' versions 1.9 and above. Hypixel uses SeaweedFS to store Slime files.<ref>{{cite|url=https://hypixel.net/threads/dev-blog-5-storing-your-skyblock-island.2190753/|title=Dev Blog #5: Storing your SkyBlock island|website=[[Hypixel Forums]]|author=Minikloon|date=2019-07-24}}</ref> Hypixel has used DDoS protection software Cloudflare Spectrum since April 2018 after being the victim of [[Wikipedia:DDoS|DDoS]] attacks.<ref>{{cite|url=https://www.pcgamer.com/internet-security-expert-links-massive-botnet-ddos-attacks-to-minecraft-disputes/|title=Internet security expert links massive botnet DDoS attacks to Minecraft disputes|website=PC Gamer}}</ref> Hypixel has over 350 dedicated [[server]]s running the server network as of July 2017.<ref>{{cite|url=https://hypixel.net/threads/what-are-hypixel-admins-even-working-on.1225215/page-3#post-10147114|title=What are Hypixel Admins even working on?|type=comment|date=2017-07-15|author=[[Simon Collins-Laflamme]]|website=[[Hypixel Forums]]|quote=There are over 350 dedicated servers}}</ref>
