Equinix AM6 Price Increase
Equinix AM6 is asking for:
- 20% more for space.
- Reasonable, hasn't been up since we moved in.
- 20% more for power.
- Not unreasonable, but they had said no further increases in 2024.
- 5% more for crossconnects.
- Reasonable.
Action item: Paul to email Equinix about the price increase.
Fastly root access
Does Ian have access?
Suggestions: Ask Ian/Fastly or wait for Grant.
- Email on 16 February 2024.
- We have a ticket for moving the config to code, which should be enough.
- We don't have a ticket for access, which is also needed for vector tiles.
- We probably don't want OpenTofu to have root access.
- We might want to restrict permissions to just edit the distributions.
Action item: Paul to open a ticket for Fastly root access and ask Grant there whether Ian has access.
