From a Joyent hosting standpoint, would I be able to run Aptana from my current account? Or could Joyent provide an Aptana service add-on, similar to the Bingo Disk add-on?

Or would a current Joyent customer be expected to migrate from Joyent to Aptana? I’d prefer to avoid that, if possible.

Congrats on the nifty move! We’re delighted with our move to Joyent over a year ago, and find your creativity refreshing. Definitely not the same old hosting service.

Their pricing model is designed to provide their Aptana Cloud customers the same prices that customer could get directly from Joyent. Joyent and Aptana then share in those revenues based on our agreement.

Joyent’s motivation for entering into an OEM arrangement like this is to drive revenue (with a lower upfront and ongoing investment than acquiring these customers directly). It’s an additional channel to supplement our direct and online sales efforts.

And, you can expect to see more of these arrangements as we find other potential partners who have a natural fit like Aptana.

However I’m confused about the Aptana Cloud.

Is this an attempt by Joyent to share their market with Aptana? .. i.e. to move the webapp business (Rails, Django etc) to a partner, keeping Joyent working primarily with CMS/Blogs like Textpattern, WordPress and so on?

Or is it that the Aptana IDE is actually to be used to implement webapps that run on our current Joyent accounts?

Or maybe I’m just missing the point! :)

Both it’s standalone and Eclipse-plug-in editions are free to download and use. It supports a wide range of things…

Back-End Languages and Environments
+ PHP, Ruby on Rails, Jaxer, Python, (and Java via Eclipse)

The Front-End Stuff
+ Ajax, HTML, CSS, JavaScript

Integration of the Back-End Languages and the Front End Stuff (e.g. simultaneous code assist across languages, etc…) is one thing that makes Aptana Studio really stand out.

The Database Stuff
+ SQL Database Tools

The Cloud Stuff (this is what’s new)
+ Integration with remote servers in cloud hosting environments

This deep integration is unprecedented. It means that you can instantly create remote serves for development, staging, or production purposes.

You can do that starting at $0.04 cents and hour with no sign up costs or long term contracts. You can also try it out for free.

The remote servers are automatically connected to the file, project, source control and other views right in Aptana Studio, as are Aptana Studio’s editors, previews, tailsviews and more.

There’s also server management and monitoring dashboards built right into Aptana Studio.

The Aptana Cloud service manages it all.

The point is that for the same price as a Joyent Accellerator, you can have your Joyent Accellerator(s) integrated right into the popular Aptana Studio IDE to streamline the process of developing, deploying, and scaling sites for you and your team.

Get started (no cost to try it out) at http://www.aptana.com/joyent. You’ll have a live site in about 2 minutes!

My explanation would be that Aptana delivers an IDE that automatically deploys to a cloud. They have built their cloud using Joyent Accelerators. Aptana is different from EC2 because it is a nice, vertically integrated solution. You’d have to use a number of solutions and patch them together to get the nice integration Aptana Studio and Aptana Cloud provide.

BTW: they don’t just do JavaScript. They also support PHP and Rails.

It’s an IDE?

It’s cloud computing?

How is it different than an Accelerator?

How is it different than Amazon EC2?

(Also, I’m not saying it necessarily has to be different … I simply just don’t understand what it is b/c it just sounds strange to me to think that JavaScript needs cloud computing since it’s a server-side technology)
