Pelican Panel is an open-source game server management platform that enables gaming communities and hosting providers to deploy, configure, and operate multiplayer servers for titles like Minecraft, Palworld, and Counter-Strike within secure, containerized environments. Administrators can provision dedicated game servers in seconds using modular configuration eggs, allocating precise CPU cores, memory thresholds, and disk quotas to prevent resource contention across noisy neighbors. Players and server operators access an interactive web console featuring live terminal output, instant power state toggles, and direct command execution over secure WebSockets. An integrated file browser enables operators to upload server modifications, edit configuration scripts with syntax highlighting, and decompress archives without opening an external terminal. Built-in scheduling pipelines automate recurring tasks such as world backups, daily server restarts, and mod updates based on custom cron expressions. Multi-tenant permission controls allow guild leaders to invite co-administrators and grant granular privileges for restarting daemons, reviewing console logs, or managing database credentials without exposing the host system. Operators can also provision external SFTP endpoints, attach secondary IP allocations, and trigger webhook alerts whenever container health anomalies occur. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.

When hosting multiplayer game servers for communities or friends requires container isolation and low-overhead administration, Calagopus steps in as a modern game server management panel. Server operators use it to deploy and control Minecraft, Rust, ARK, Valheim, FiveM, and any other Linux containerized workload while reusing existing Pterodactyl and Pelican eggs without modification. From the live WebSocket console, administrators monitor real-time CPU, memory, and network graphs, autocomplete saved command snippets, inspect per-layer Docker image pull progress bars, and pop the terminal out into a secondary window. Managing configuration files and modpacks happens directly in the browser through a split-pane tabbed editor featuring real-time collaborative editing, side-by-side revision diffs with one-click rollback, a visual disk usage treemap, in-place archive browsing, and VS Code workspace mounting. Database workflows are equally streamlined: you can provision MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, or Redis instances, browse and edit rows or SQLite files in a built-in data explorer, and run read-only or writable SQL queries without external database clients. Automated schedules support conditional if-else branching, regex variable extraction from console output, crash-detection triggers, and eight backup storage drivers including S3, Restic, Kopia, ZFS, Btrfs, and Proxmox Backup Server.

Hosting a Minecraft survival world, a Terraria server, and a Palworld host no longer means juggling SSH sessions and screen windows, because MCSManager puts every instance behind one web panel. A built-in marketplace installs game servers from ready-made templates, filtered by operating system and tagged with the Java version each one needs, while any Docker Hub image, uploaded ZIP archive, or plain process can run as an instance with its own start command, stop command, and live terminal. Docker instances get memory, CPU, port mapping, and volume settings, and each instance can auto start, auto restart, and run scheduled tasks. For Minecraft servers, the plugin and mod manager (Beta) searches Modrinth and CurseForge, and the file manager handles maps, configs, and uploads. Administrators create user accounts and assign instances to them, so friends or paying customers only see their own servers, which suits small hosting businesses that sell game servers. Extra machines join as nodes and connect to the same panel, and the drag-and-drop dashboard can be rearranged to taste. The interface supports many languages. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. Apache-2.0 licensed.

Saki Panel is a self-hosted operations console that manages your game servers, containers, and background processes across multiple Linux machines, with an AI assistant sitting inside the workspace when something breaks. Start, stop, restart, and monitor nine kinds of instances, from Minecraft and Steam game servers to Docker containers, Compose stacks, Node and Python apps, and plain shell commands. Remote nodes connect over SSH and report CPU, memory, and disk metrics to a cluster dashboard, so every machine is visible in one place. When an instance crashes, Saki Watch records the exit and its error fingerprint, then helps diagnose the cause from live logs, files, and metrics instead of making you copy text between a terminal and a chat window. Proposed fixes appear as diffs that need your approval, are graded by risk level, and can roll back automatically if verification fails after a patch. Day to day work happens in the same console: a web terminal, a file manager with an editor and archive support, database tools for SQLite, MySQL, PostgreSQL, and Redis, and cron-scheduled tasks with full run history. Role-based access with dozens of permission codes, audit logs, and incident notifications through webhooks or Telegram keep a small team in control. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. Apache-2.0 licensed.

Why keep a Java runtime on the server just to host Minecraft, when Pumpkin runs from a single native executable and lets Java and Bedrock players share a world? Java Edition clients join on port 25565 and Bedrock clients on 19132, although Bedrock support is still marked work in progress. Builds exist for Windows, Linux, macOS, and Android. On launch, the console reports the worlds loaded and the server ready within milliseconds. Plugins are sandboxed WebAssembly modules that raise console permission prompts and pass signature checks, and authors can write them in Rust, Kotlin, Python, Go, C#, C/C++, D, Zig, or TypeScript. The ppm package manager searches and installs community plugins from the Pumpkin Market, and PatchBukkit loads some Bukkit and Paper plugins, with expected gaps. One pumpkin.toml file holds ports, MOTD, view distance, whitelist, authentication, compression, PvP, chat, resource packs, and world options, while chunks save in Anvil, Linear, or the native Pump format. Velocity and BungeeCord forwarding fit proxy networks, and the Query protocol plus Minecraft Server Management Protocol cover monitoring and remote administration. A public parity tracker lists every vanilla block, entity, item, and command as implemented, partial, or planned, so gaps are easy to spot before a world moves. Today it suits private survival worlds, test servers, and plugin development. It is early software, so the project advises backups.

Pulse monitors your entire heterogeneous infrastructure from one screen: Proxmox VE, Proxmox Backup Server, Proxmox Mail Gateway, Docker, Podman, Docker Swarm, Kubernetes, TrueNAS SCALE/CORE, VMware vSphere, and standalone Linux/Windows/macOS machines. The Go binary embeds a SolidJS/TypeScript frontend, delivering WebSocket-driven dashboards with sub-second metric updates on port 7655. A unified agent auto-detects Docker, Podman, Kubernetes, and Proxmox on each host without manual configuration and self-updates silently, while Proxmox nodes need only API credentials with zero agent installation. Smart alerts use adaptive hysteresis-based thresholds to prevent notification floods, pushing to Discord, Slack, Telegram, Teams, email, ntfy.sh, Gotify, and generic webhooks with per-resource overrides. The standout feature is Pulse Patrol: scheduled AI health checks running every ten minutes to seven days using OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, or local Ollama models. Patrol catches silent backup failures, capacity creep, restart loops, unhealthy containers, and clock drift that dashboards miss when nobody is watching. Platform-specific views render Proxmox nodes, Ceph clusters, Docker Compose projects, Kubernetes workloads, TrueNAS pools, and vSphere VMs in familiar layouts. OIDC, SSO, and SAML authentication with credential encryption at rest secures access. 6,500+ stars and 441 releases since February 2025.

Komari turns a scattered fleet of VPS boxes into one clean status wall that shows which servers are alive, struggling, or about to expire. Every node reports CPU, GPU, memory, swap, disk, load, network speed, traffic totals, and uptime to a real-time dashboard, with history views from ten minutes to thirty days or any custom range. Flip between a card grid and a table, search by name, region, or operating system, and tag each machine with its price, billing cycle, and days until renewal. Latency tasks send ICMP, TCP, or HTTP probes and plot the results in per-node charts. Offline alerts wait out a per-node grace period before firing, expiry reminders warn before a plan lapses, and Webhook and custom JavaScript channels deliver them. A multi-tab browser terminal that reattaches after disconnects, remote command execution, and a remote file manager with an editor let you fix problems without leaving the panel. Agents install with a script, a binary, Docker, or an auto-discovery key for batch rollouts, and administrators can switch an agent's version remotely. Plugins run on an embedded JavaScript runtime and can add scheduled jobs, HTTP hooks, static pages, and notification channels. Administrators can add two-factor authentication, OAuth sign-in, API keys for a JSON-RPC 2.0 endpoint, themes from a theme market, and backups.
