Joyent Announces Sun Hosting Partnership and New Hosting Service Discounts for Startups

Sun has put together a great program called Sun Startup Essentials where startup companies can gain access to Sun technologies, software and services for either free, or via sharply discounted rates.

We are pleased as punch to be named as one of Sun’s two preferred Hosting providers, (though we would prefer to be called the ‘On Demand Computing’ partner) and will be offering a 25% discount off the standard Joyent Accelerators price list to startups who qualify for the program.

If you would like to learn more about Sun Startup Essentials, please visit Sun’s website and when you are ready, we encourage Joyeurs to apply for the program. There are a few Sun hoops you need to jump through to be accepted, but once you are in the door, there is software and services galore that will be at your fingertips which makes the red tape well worth it.

Read the official press release.

Note: Currently the program is only open to startups in North America. Sun is planning on expanding the program to other countries and are actively working on the details.
