Fwd: Sun Cloud Storage Early Access Program for Partners Ends 18 Jan 2010

[Bill Branan]

It looks like we made the right choice to stop putting effort into integrating with the Sun Cloud. Sun is pulling the plug on external access to their cloud, see below.

This note is to inform all the Sun Cloud ISV partners who have accounts on Sun Cloud Storage Service infrastructure located at https:\\storage.network.com  that we will decommission this infrastructure on 18 January, 2010 (we are moving to a new infrastructure that is open to Sun employees only at this time). On that date all data stored within the service will be deleted.  Therefore, if you have any data in your account that you want to retain you must take action to save that data to another location (e.g., local disk) before 18 January.  If you need assistance or have questions, please email  cc-partne...@sun.com or contact me.

I appreciate your participation in our Sun Cloud Storage EA Program for Partners and many thanks for your valuable feedback. We will be in touch with you when we have more news regarding the Sun Open Cloud Platform.

Sincerely
Sanjay Sharma
Director Market Development - Cloud Computing and Startups
