Today, Node.js has earned the respect of enterprise cloud developers and is increasingly relied upon by companies Uber, DowJones, Yahoo, PayPal, and eBay for replacing their web front ends and building API servers.

With the new service, Joyent provides developers who are building production-grade Node.js applications access to Joyent-s years of experience in running one of the largest Node.js based applications and systems in the world — The Joyent Public Cloud.

“Node.js has been a fundamental design choice for all of our products — The Joyent Public Cloud and its related components, including the customer portal and our Joyent Manta Storage Service, as well as our Joyent SmartDataCenter Private Cloud software. We learned invaluable lessons while building these large distributed systems, and this new support offering reflects that expertise,” said Bryan Cantrill, senior vice president of engineering at Joyent. “As corporate stewards of Node.js, it is our duty to encourage and support developers who are building business applications in Node.js. That is how you build a very successful, collective ecosystem around an open source project.”

By integrating Node.js with deep introspection tools for debugging and performance tuning, Joyent has enabled end users to easily correlate outside activity to what-s going on inside a program. Although dynamic languages are traditionally challenging to debug, Joyent-s Node.js tooling is excellent for both observing a running process, and performing post hoc analysis.

“ServiceSource has fully embraced the Node.js dynamic runtime as a core component for our Renew OnDemand cloud application for recurring revenue management,” said Timothy Fleming, senior vice president of engineering at ServiceSource. “As the corporate stewards of Node.js and with their deep experience running Node.js systems at scale, Joyent is the perfect partner to support us.”
