nodejitsu

The nodejitsu website doesn't say anything about databases. It took me some Googling (e.g. "site:nodejitsu.com mongodb") to find out that you in fact offer database hosting. I mean, I knew the nodejitsu website for quite some time and never knew about it and thus never evaluated for my use case. The same goes for which cloud host is used. I was implying that nodejitsu runs in it's own cloud (maybe Rackspace hosted, or Joyent, because it appears in nodejitsu context). But I now found out that you can choose where to run it (e.g. aws EU Ireland, which is what I want).

Long story short, you guys should really take a look at other PAAS and put the damn USPs on your homepage

  • You are THE node.js experts (you specialized in that. No rails, php, java or whatever)
  • It's not just application hosting but anything I need (list everything you offer, e.g. mongodb, redis, mysql, rabbitmq, whatever)
  • Free to get started with limited DB (e.g. "Free to get started for small apps with 100mb of free MongoDB")
  • Choose from a variety of cloud hoster to integrate with your other services

Maybe hire a IA expert to get these things sorted. Because right now I find it really hard to find the infos I care about.
