Global Infrastructure Commitment

We own all of our server hardware, switches and other infrastructure. Unlike most hosting providers Rochen do not lease our equipment from anyone. Only the best enterprise-grade servers are in operation. Rochen also maintains globally diverse data centres in London, England in the United Kingdom and Dallas, Texas in the United States. This allows you to select your hosting location on the fly when ordering.

By having no middle men it gives us a far greater degree of control over the hosting environment powering your websites allowing us to offer unsurpassed levels of reliability and performance. Whether you host with us in the United Kingdom or United States you will receive the same great service backed by our unrivlaed 24/7/365 technical support.
