Joyent and SmartOS
• Joyent is tackling the challenges of cloud computing: multi-tenancy/density, observability, storage and network virtualization
• Joyent believes that the solutions to these problems begin in the operating system — that the operating system matters more than ever
• We have our own illumos variant, SmartOS, that embodies that belief

A year of SmartOS
• A year ago, we made SmartOS available with the announcement of illumos-based KVM — on which we have since deployed tens of thousands of VMs
• Beyond adding KVM, we have also moved the system forward by extending the core illumos technologies: Zones, DTrace, ZFS
• While we want to run all application runtimes, we have a particular focus on making SmartOS the premier platform for deploying node.js apps
• In the past year, we have integrated node.js with SmartOS technologies, e.g. DTrace, mdb, libumem

The SmartOS community
• We have seen explosive interest in SmartOS: many tens of thousands of downloads (!) with a surprising number running it seriously in production (!!)
• The enthusiasm has come as a (pleasant!) surprise; we apologize that we havenʼt always had as much time as we would like to help the community
• We think office hours in #smartos (Thursdays, 10a to 11a Pacific) have been successful, but weʼre always welcome to new ideas for helping the community!
