Rochen is the official hosting provider for Joomla! hosting all of the project’s sites at www.joomla.org including the forum and extensions directory.

The company owns and manages all of their own servers and infrastructure and doesn’t simply lease servers from a larger data center. This allows greater control over their service by cutting out the “middle man”. Rochen now hosts thousands of Joomla! powered websites with clients in over 60 countries worldwide. They operate geographically diverse data centers in both North America and Europe allowing you to choose your hosting location.

Unlike a lot of other web hosts Rochen very much focuses on providing a “performance hosting” solution where you can deploy an installation of Joomla! and it will run right out of the box without any configuration hassles, slow downs, or performance related problems. In addition to their shared hosting and virtualised computing solutions Rochen also offers reseller plans and has an affiliate program for partnership with web designers and developers.

They also offer a range of unique features like the Rochen Vault -- managed off-server backup platform -- that takes multiple daily snapshots of your hosting account allowing a Joomla! install to be easily rolled back to points-in-time over the previous 30 days with the click of your mouse. Rochen meets the strictest security requirements for hosting Joomla while not limiting functionality.
