DevOps Integrations¶
Working with the DevOps ecosystem is one of the most rewarding jobs at Equinix Metal™, and we love it! In addition to evolving alongside well-established tools like Terraform, we're always looking for new communities to participate in.
If you have a question or find ways in which our support for your favorite tool can be improved, please open an issue, find us on the Equinix Community, or drop us an email via Support.
Terraform - Recommended¶
Terraform enables you to safely and predictably create, change, and improve production infrastructure by using configuration files.
Equinix has a number of Terraform modules to help you get started quickly. Check out the Terraform category on Equinix Labs to see the latest offerings.
Ansible¶
App deployment, configuration management, and orchestration - all from one system. Ansible is powerful IT automation that you can learn quickly. You can read more about the Equinix Ansible collection on Equinix Labs
Apache Libcloud¶
Apache Libcloud is a Python library for interacting with many of the popular cloud service providers using a unified API.
Crossplane¶
The Equinix Metal provider for Crossplane gives you the ability to deploy Equinix Metal server devices and virtual networks via kubectl and compose them into higher-level infrastructure abstractions with Crossplane, to deploy apps faster using best-practice configurations. Crossplane supports multiple cloud providers so you can compose the right mix of Equinix Metal infrastructure and services from other clouds to deliver multi-cloud applications using kubectl, deployment pipelines and GitOps workflows, or anything that works with the Kubernetes API.
Pulumi¶
