So what did Samsung do with Joyent? Just a failed acquisition or were there plans?

From what I learned from Podcasts, they did a massive build-out of datacenters with Joyant technology for internal use as Samsung. But I don't know if that continued. Love to hear from Bryan more on that.
It seems like it has not continued considering the Joyent tech Triton, SmartOS, et al. and engineers have been sold off to MNX.io for future care and feeding.
My understanding is that there are not very many ex-Joyent folks at MNX.io, there's just a few, many more are at Oxide.
