Private beta · plan-only by design. Every package in equinix.dev installs locally, compiles to Terraform, and stops at an explicit approval gate. No mutating action runs without a human.

What is equinix.dev?

A unified developer surface for Equinix infrastructure. One CLI, one provider catalog, Terraform and MCP context built in. Compose Fabric Cloud Routers, cloud on-ramps, GPU capacity, observability, and governance into a Terraform PR — without leaving your terminal.

Quickstart

Install the CLI, the agent skills, and your first provider package in under five minutes.

The workflow

Discover · Plan · Preflight · Approve. The four stages every package runs through.

Package anatomy

Every provider exposes the same six-file contract: provider.json, terraform.json, mcp.json, readiness.json, pricing.md, llms.txt.

Browse the catalog

Equinix Fabric primitives, official MCP and Agent Factory surfaces, three cloud on-ramps, observability, and platform tooling.

Use cases

Three canonical scenarios assembled from real Equinix primitives. Each page has a problem statement, the architecture, the Terraform recipe, and the MCP trace an agent walks through to build it — plan-only by default.

Private AI inference path

Enterprise origin → Fabric Cloud Router → Lambda / CoreWeave / Crusoe in IAD. Network Edge enforces traffic shaping.

Multi-cloud private interconnect

AWS + Azure + GCP from one FCR pair (IAD + DFW), with route filters enforcing PCI / PHI / SOX classification.

Distributed AI observability

Three-metro telemetry into Datadog or Grafana via Fabric Streams — sampled, rate-limited, never on the public internet.

Built on real Equinix sources

Every claim in this documentation maps to a real Equinix repository or docs page. There is no synthetic Terraform here — packages wrap the official provider, modules, and MCP servers.

terraform-provider-equinix

equinix/equinix ~> 4.15 — the official Terraform provider. Resources for Fabric, Network Edge, and Metal.

terraform-equinix-fabric

terraform-equinix-fabric v0.28.1 — the canonical Fabric module set: cloud-router connections, port connections, streams.

Equinix MCP servers

mcp.equinix.com/fabric and mcp.equinix.com/peeringInsights — read-first OAuth MCP servers documented as private beta.

agent-factory

Agent definitions and event-driven Fabric operations patterns from the public Equinix repository.
