Akamai Application Platform on LKE
The Akamai Application Platform is a Kubernetes-centric solution that supports the full application lifecycle from development to deployment. It leverages tools from the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) landscape, providing an integrated environment for managing containerized workloads. Optimized for Linode…
Get your own own Github runner deployed and configured on Linode in less than 5 minutes.
Why would you run your own runner anyways? GitHub Actions (along with Azure DevOps) has emerged as a powerful managed tool that allows developers to automate workflows directly within their GitHub repositories. While GitHub provides hosted runners to execute these…
Linode, Windows instances and Metadata service
Even though Windows instances aren’t officially supported on Linode, there are ways to get a Windows based instance up and running (a bit of googling will help you around that). Once you deployed your Windows instance, you will notice that…
Powershell module for Linode – Akamai Connected Cloud
Even though I consider myself as being “platform-agnostic”, I originally come from a Microsoft side of the industry and because of that I had a lot of exposure to PowerShell. After a relatively steep learning curve, I realized that PowerShell…
Deploying a GLOBAL sentiment Analysis service using DeepSparse and Akamai Connected Cloud
In the previous post, we explored how to deploy a sentiment analysis application using Neural Magic’s DeepSparse on Akamai Connected Cloud (Linode). We leveraged just two dual-core VMs and a Nodebalancer to process a pretty impressive number(40K) of movie reviews…
Easy way to deploy Linode instances across all (core) regions using Terraform
In preparations for a upcoming blog post related to running AI workloads on Akamai Connected Cloud, I needed to deploy instances in all available Linode regions. Since there’s no way that I’ll manually create a list of regions, I thought…
Sentiment analysis of 40 thousand movie reviews in 20 minutes using Neural Magic’s DeepSparse inference runtime and Linode virtual machines.
First, let me start with a word or two about DeepSparse. DeepSparse is a sparsity-aware inference runtime that delivers GPU-class performance on commodity CPUs, purely in software, anywhere. GPUs Are Not Optimal – Machine learning inference has evolved over the…
Deploying HarperDB Docker container on Linode VM using Terraform and cloud-init
This blog post is a small update to the excellent post guys from HarperDB wrote – https://www.harperdb.io/development/tutorials/deploying-harperdb-on-digital-ocean-linode-with-terraform Since Linode now support cloud-init and metadata service, I decided to extend their example by using cloud-init to do the installation of Docker…
Assigning a firewall to Linode NodeBalancer using Terraform and Cloud Manager.
Linode has finally rolled out support to assign a firewall device to a NodeBalancer (Linode’s managed load balancing service)! Assigning a firewall via CloudManager is quite easy and self-explanatory. Create a firewall, add the rules you need and simply select…
Fix Linode Windows VM IP configuration using Windows SAC console and Lish.
Today I decided to migrate my Windows VM running on Linode from Paris region to Amsterdam region. After kicking off the migration through the Cloud Manager (which took <15 minutes), my instance wasn’t responding to any network requests. Problem was…
