What you said is interesting and potentially feasible. I'd use sharding to eliminate the problem of scalability though. How about a setup like the following. I like the idea of a centralized player data tracker but I'm thinking more along the lines of there being "words" or dimensions of a few chunks that are seamlessly integrated into the overall map; just make it tileable for expansion. Essentially any X amount of chunks are a private server and you simulate on their own thread and what happens when you reveal a new chunk when you're exploring. When boundaries are crossed, you essentially transport from a private dimension (thread) that looks the same as the reg ow to the actual ow. I had half finished typing the below when i really got into the details of your idea so there's a lot of overlap:

Is it impossible for a server to be setup using hyperthreading where ea premium player has a large "island" like crash landing that integrates into an overworld where the player data is synced across? That way you could have a zone where you had awesome tps that would integrate into the regular map sorta seamlessly, or maybe a dimension running on its own thread. Synchronization would occur at the borders when you move back and forth between them. So basically the island is a private dimension that perfectly maps the ow, with only certain chunks represented in the island so that everyone has the experience of 1 map. It should also be possible to have a party of friends that have perms to enter your dimension. It's been awhile since I've looked at the actual architecture of how smp works nowadays but by almost by definition, chunks allow for sharding since they're discrete; this is how massive website datasets (ie mysql - see facebook clones) winnow down massive datasets to discrete elements that are manageable. I'd think you parallelize portions of the map onto different hardware and only synchronize at the borders. This could be made almost trivial using portals to control boundary transfers. I admit it would require a good degree of coding to make this happen but I don't think its insurmountable. As long as you can sync player data through every boundary using a repository you shouldn't have problems with inventory or thaum or bm for that matter. Admittedly its been awhile since I've had to project manage something as complicated as this but it seems possible to me but I will admit that with my limited understanding of the current architecture this may be naive.

You can, but you will need a fleet of experienced java reverse engineers and this constantly with every mod update that changes things. @Xfel11 can probably point out the main issues with this as the best.

unlikely and especially not any time soon. They made a win 10 version with net, but that is like the mobile one.

to chime in there:

To remake MC for c++/c#/c with the same functionality and same moddability is a massive undertaking that will require serious dedication and ressources, and it would flat out kill most of the modding scene. That does not sound like something microsoft wants to do.
