"What Is" Series
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-nvmeWhat'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.
