Triton is amazing, and has been powering our @mnxio public cloud for many years now. We plan to increase development efforts, and provide continued investment for the long-term success of the #triton and #smartos platforms!
We are excited to announce that we have acquired the Triton DataCenter technology suite (lnkd.in/dvvshSrX) and commercial support business from @joyent! Let's welcome back the Triton Public Cloud @MNXio! #smartos #triton #manta joyent.com/blog/a-new-chapte…

Honestly it's a win for us that they've put this out. There's an obtainable artefact we can point people at if they have questions about how the proprietary Solaris fork is distinct from illumos, rather than our being expected to support it somehow ourselves.

2014 has been the best in some ways but also the worst. @jimweirich, @ezmobius, and now @jamesgolick. Too much.

It's crossed my mind more than once that all the breakage in Chrome and Safari could mean that Google and Apple don't love the web so much.
