stevemarturned me onto Equinix's "What is?" series where each article explores a new technology or topic. For example, you may know what iPXE is but did you know that Equinix actually boots up iPXE for every supported operating system of ours? There's a lot to learn, so give these a read. I'll add some of them below: What is an API https://deploy.equinix.com/developers/guides/what-is-api What is Colocation https://deploy.equinix.com/developers/guides/what-is-colocation What is iPXE https://deploy.equinix.com/developers/guides/what-is-ipxe/ What is Kubernetes https://deploy.equinix.com/developers/guides/what-is-kubernetes What is NVMe https://deploy.equinix.com/developers/guides/what-is-nvme6.5KViews2likes2CommentsWhat's the difference between Playground, Sandbox, and Production?
You might be deploying on Network Edgetoday to run through Charles_Randall's tutorial. While reading up on Network Edge atDeveloper Platform, then perhaps you're thinking "what's the difference between Playground, Sandbox, and Production?". In short: Playground is a test environment to test Equinix APIs, using static data without integrating within the actual API. Sandbox is a mock test environmentto test Equinix APIs, using synthetic data (not production data)to integrate with Equinix APIs before moving to Production. Production is the live environment.4KViews2likes0CommentsWhy do you use Equinix Metal? Why should someone consider using Equinix Metal?

Currently I'm using the API token associated with my personal login to Equinix for the Fabric API. What's the best way to make an API token for a service sharable by a group of people at my company? Should I just make an Equinix login like first name Cloud last name Fabric, and then make an API token from that, or is there another way?Solved4.5KViews1like3CommentsCreate Virtual Devices Using Equinix APIs
