20%-50% off Joyent Accelerator Upgrades (for Facebook Developers)

If you have an existing free Facebook Accelerator account, you should have received this promotion via email today. For the rest of you, we’ve got a great deal to offer.

Today, over 14% of application usage at Facebook comes from applications that run on Joyent Accelerators, and it is great to watch the successes many of you have had on this platform.

To support your continued growth, we have come up with special pricing to help you scale:

• 20% off 1GB, 2GB or 4GB Accelerators if you buy on a quarterly basis.

• 50% off 1GB, 2GB or 4GB Accelerator if you buy 1 year as you will get the 2nd year for free.

On both offers, we’ll also waive the set up fees for people upgrading from Joyent Facebook Accelerators.

You can get these deals on the special order page. This pricing is available for a limited time only.

Also, we’ve increased your bandwidth to 10TB!!

Joyent now gives you your first 10,000 GiB (10TB) of data transfer AND traffic between your Joyent Accelerator and Facebook, does not count towards the 10TB – an even sweeter deal no one can match!

On Amazon, that would cost you just about $1,800. After the first 10TB, your charges will be a mere $0.15 per GB. Not a bad deal we think.

Don’t wait, Upgrade Today!

Hi ,

I’ve plugged into a program for startups that lets us buy Sun gear (which can run the OS of your choice) at discounts of up to 60%. Plus you can get great deals on hosting through their partners as well as free technical assistance. It’s free to join and I bet you guys would be eligible – check it out at sun.com/startup.

Oh – and if you join before the end of September, I might be eligible for some free hosting services. What’s not to like?

We’re rolling out another monstrously good deal, one that combines really high end versions of Joyent, TextDrive and Strongspace. Similar to our very successful ‘Mixed Grill’ special from earlier this year, you get your sites hosted on our Business servers, which carry 90% fewer accounts than our regular shared machines, a big honking wodge of Strongspace file storage, and a massive 25 user hosted Joyent account. Details are here.

You may need the afternoon to sleep it off.
