Something seems to be happening at Joyent a lot of good people have left recently; Brendan Gregg, Deirdré Straughan, Ben Rockwood, Mark Cavage and so on. I love the work Joyent put out and have great admiration for them but something is off.

Netflix is happy to pay people like Brendan Gregg a fucking ton of money, so it doesn't necessarily speak to anything at Joyent. Joyent has been going for 8 years and just raised another round; that's a long time.

Mark left? How did you find that out? This must have been super recent.

he's building some sort of amazon cloud competitor at oracle [1]. Kind of inevitable, really, now that amazon is building Aurora and going after Oracle's core business.
