Benjamin Jenkins joins up to discuss Large Language Models, text generation, and demystifying AI. In this episode we demonstrate building our own GPT (similar to CHatGPT) using LMStudio by Hugging Face. Using Equinix, we're able to spin up a server within 20 minutes Johnny Tseng = Director, Equinix Metal Sales Benjamin Jenkins = Field CTO Get started with Equinix Metal using code "EquinixLive" for $250 credit = https://deploy.equinix.com/400Views0likes0CommentsHow to Simplify Network Ops at Equinix
Network operations in the public cloud is easy because it is highly abstracted. How to bring a similar level of network abstraction to your own dedicated cloud environment at Equinix? This session will demonstrate and share how to simplify, automate, and interconnect any network environment.217Views0likes0CommentsNutanix Terraform Cluster Provisioning
Come join Equinix's Chris Privitere! Nutanix Terraform Cluster Provisioning simplifies the process of setting up cloud environments. By using a few lines of code, you can efficiently configure and deploy clusters. This method ensures a streamlined and consistent setup, reducing manual errors. It's a reliable solution for managing complex IT infrastructures. LINKS Nutanix Workshop Create an Account Deploy Labs151Views0likes0CommentsOn-Demand vs. Reserved Hardware in Equinix Metal
In this video, we'll discuss Equinix Metal server options with a focus on comparing On-Demand and Reserved Server options. We start with a walkthrough from the perspective of a new customer and show you how to add a new SSH Key to your profile. Then we break down the differences between On-Demand and Reserved systems before we walkthrough how quick and easy it is to provision both options.

Did you know that you can take advantage of Equinix Metal Load Balancers while quickly provisioning a Kubernetes cluster? You can try this hands-on in our latest workshop that takes advantage of two Equinix integrations with the Kubernetes API: Cloud Provider Equinix Metal (CPEM) and Cluster API Provider Packet (CAPP). This workshop takes a user step-by-step through gathering configuration details from the Metal Console, setting up the launch environment, and deploying a sample application on the load balanced cluster. You’ll use CAPP to deploy the cluster on Equinix Metal machines, including three control plane nodes and two worker nodes to demonstrate the load balancing functionality. By changing the configuration in CPEM, it is enabled to set up the load balancing service in front of the control plane nodes. Later, the user deploys and verifies nginx as a sample application. This produces a website that can be accessed via an external IP managed by a dynamically provisioned Equinix Metal Load Balancer, which can be reviewed in the Equinix Metal console. Make sure to permanently delete the cluster using the workshop instructions since Cluster API clusters will attempt to repair themselves if servers and load balancers are deleted manually. This workshop is a wonderful way to gain comfort using a diverse set of Kubernetes related tools as well as Equinix load balancing and bare metal.54Views0likes0CommentsNutanix Examples: Protection Policy with VM Migration & Active Directory Authentication
Those looking to explore Nutanix on Equinix Metal are likely to have two concerns in mind: ease of migration and security. Thankfully, two examples have recently been added to the Equinix Terraform directory that demonstrate exactly how a user can accomplish these two things. Nutanix Clusters Setup and Protection Policy - walks a user through creating two Nutanix Clusters on Equinix Metal rapidly, create a protection policy between them, and then practice creating a VM in one cluster and migrating it to the other cluster. Nutanix on Equinix Metal with Active Directory Authentication - helps a user create a cluster on Equinix, add an AD server VM, configure AD authentication, and map a few sample roles to the AD. Both examples use a combination of Terraform and manual Prism console steps, promoting understanding while deploying with speed and convenience. Consider walking through these examples if you're interested in exploring Nutanix on Equinix Metal or learning more about making your infrastructure more reliable and secure.47Views2likes0Comments
