Why did Aptana choose Joyent as its first cloud computing infrastructure provider for Aptana Cloud?
Joyent serves over 1 billion page views a month, including some of the largest Facebook apps out there. There are now over 4000 PHP apps running on Joyent and their expertise in hosted Ruby on Rails environments is renowned. Unlike Amazon, though they intend to get there, Joyent provides static IP addresses which many of our customers told us they wanted. In addition, the modularity of Joyent’s data center enabled us to pass lower entry level prices directly through to you — up to 60% lower compared to Amazon EC2’s entry level pricing.
