Equinix Inc. is partnering with other players, such as The Linux Foundation, to offer open-source developers relevant infrastructure, such as bare metal, for unparalleled performance, scalability and manageability over their environments, according toJosh Atwell(pictured, left), senior director of developer relations at Equinix. “Software is really boringif it doesn’t have something to run on,” Atwell said. “Being at Equinix has been pretty fantastic, because it’s our core — what we do is infrastructure. We’ve had a few partnersthat just come by to talk to our joint customersabout how they’ve been using our platform,using our network, our bare metal serversto be able to solve problems, and it’s just nice rememberingthat the infrastructure’s still there and it’s important.” Atwell andRobert Reeves(right), vice president of strategic partnerships at The Linux Foundation, spoke with theCUBE industry analystsSavannah PetersonandDustin KirklandatKubeCon + CloudNativeCon NA, during an exclusive broadcast on theCUBE, SiliconANGLE Media’s livestreaming studio. They discussed why infrastructure plays a pivotal role in open source, and how Equinix, The Linux Foundation and the Cloud Native Compute Foundation fit into the picture.786Views0likes0CommentsFlatcar: A Cloud Native Take on Linux
A few years ago, the folks behind Flatcar Container Linux made it their business to change that, to give the world a version of Linux that would behave and be managed like a cloud native developer would expect. Today, engineers can configure and deploy Flatcar instances using the same declarative approach they use to create a Kubernetes cluster: by listing their desired configuration details in a YAML doc and then having the OS image automatically installed and configured on as many servers as they would like. Here’s how the Flatcar team does this, with a little bit of help from its friends at Equinix!

Cassandra Chin, a college student from Colorado State University, studying computer science, discusses her book “Phippy's AI Friend” with Steve Martinelli at KubeCon Paris. The book follows the story of Kimani, a non-binary computer who faces struggles in finding their identity. The book also includes a workshop where readers can build a visual recognition model using Scratch. Cassandra has been conducting workshops since the age of 13 and enjoys making technology accessible to everyone. She will be giving a keynote at DevNexus and is also involved with the AI ML working group at CNCF, working on an AI white paper to connect AI and cloud-native development. Cassandra emphasizes the importance of creating educational content for developers to adopt AI in a meaningful way. The book is available on Amazon, with a French version also available. Cassandra’s favorite character in the book is Kimani.218Views0likes0CommentsHow to Simplify Network Ops at Equinix
