Case Study: Joomla achieves data sovereignty and transparent global collaboration with Mattermost

Data Sovereignty at Scale: How Joomla Powers a Global Community with Mattermost

Joomla, a major open-source content management system powered by a global community of over 1,500 volunteers, needed to replace its existing messaging tool to gain full control over its collaboration infrastructure. The challenge was to find a secure platform that balanced public transparency with data privacy and GDPR compliance for its distributed teams. They selected the Mattermost collaboration platform to meet this need.

By implementing Mattermost, Joomla achieved full data sovereignty and streamlined collaboration. The solution provided a central hub for its global teams, featuring public and private channels, integrated voice and video calls, and powerful search. Mattermost enabled Joomla to open its development process to the public while ensuring private data remained secure and compliant, ultimately powering a more transparent and efficient community.
