Joyent SmartMachines
Reliability & Resiliency

Joyent ensures your data is consistent and safe through the powerful enterprise-grade ZFS file system that is trusted by financial institutions and the U.S. military to protect and preserve their most critical information. In the Joyent Cloud ZFS runs on top of a high performance local storage subsystem. The result? 100% data resiliency and fidelity.
Performance and Scale
Premium Disk I/O and Network I/O accelerate all applications running in the Joyent Cloud. Linux and Windows SmartMachines running on Joyent’s KVM hardware virtualization also enjoy lightening fast boot times. SmartOS SmartMachines extend this performance by allowing applications to instantly burst into large pools of CPU.
Know Everything
The Joyent Cloud stack provides unparalleled transparency. Joyent Cloud customers can use our Cloud Analytics software to generate powerful real-time graphs that take you from high level analysis down to the very process responsible for latency. Joyent has also teamed up with New Relic and Zeus to deliver simple-to-use but powerful additional monitoring at the application and network layer. Collectively, this is the most comprehensive analytics package in the cloud.
Security
Joyent SmartMachines run inside container-based virtualization. This virtualization system builds a digital “steel wall” around your application which protects you from malicious internal attacks. This layer of security formerly only offered in SmartOS SmartMachines is now provided to customers running Linux and Windows machines.
