What Nodejitsu is  it’s a PAAS (acronym that stands for Platform as a Service)  PAAS (together with IAAS and SAAS) is a type of service model in the cloud computing industry  we make deploying and scaling web applications a breeze  the end customer doesn’t have to worry about hardware management and hosting configuration

What’s so special about it?  it’s the first platform entirely built on and for node.js  pretty much everything that composes it is open source on Github  highly community-focused (we love going to and sponsoring confs)  multiple clouds (Rackspace, Joyent, Azure, ..)
