JVMHost provides managed Java application hosting for developers and organizations running Java web applications, servlet containers, and application servers. Its shared-server service combines a dedicated JVM with application-server choices including Tomcat, Jetty, JBoss, and GlassFish. The offering also includes cPanel, a custom Java Control Panel, databases, email, DNS, SSL support, and migration assistance. It is best suited to teams that want managed Java hosting without operating a separate server environment.

Pricing is organized around application-server and memory options. Tomcat and Jetty plans start at $7.95 per month with 128 MB of heap memory, 128 MB of PermGen memory, 10 GB SSD storage, and 1024 GB bandwidth. Tomcat Plus costs $15.95 per month and raises heap and PermGen memory to 256 MB. Tomcat Premium costs $27.95 per month with 512 MB of each, while Tomcat Enterprise costs $35.95 per month with 1024 MB of each. JBoss costs $27.95 per month, and Resin and Geronimo cost $29.95 per month; each lists 512 MB heap and PermGen memory, 10 GB SSD storage, and 1024 GB bandwidth. A 30-day trial is available.

The strongest fit is a Java application that benefits from managed controls, scheduled weekly and monthly account backups, free SSL certificates, unlimited mailboxes and aliases, and free migration support. MySQL and PostgreSQL support broadens the hosting setup, while the custom Java Control Panel covers JVM and application-server settings, logs, mappings, and monitoring. The trade-off is the shared-server model and a relatively focused web-only platform offering. Organizations needing wider platform or integration breadth, or more isolated infrastructure, should consider an alternative hosting approach.
