Can we optimise digital services for Sustainability, ‘retrofitting’ them to improve speed and reduce cost? With headlines like 'If tech were a country it would be the 3rd largest polluter after the US and China', it's clear that technology organisations are waking up to their impact on the environment, and the enormous potential to reduce emissions through their digital estate.
But where to focus efforts? Moving workloads to the Cloud can be the Sustainable choice, but with the hyperscalers' business models set up to offer seemingly unlimited storage, many organisations are tempted to simply 'lift and shift' outdated bloated processes and code. Could this be having a more negative than positive impact on speed, cost and the environment?
Our Director of Sustainable Consulting, Claire Robinson, will come together with Gerry McGovern - the author of Top Tasks and World Wide Waste - Navveen Balani - co-creator of the SCI metric which is now an ISO standard - and Anne Currie - the author of Building Green Software - to explore the topic 'Can we optimise digital services for Sustainability, ‘retrofitting’ them to improve speed and reduce cost?'
Our four experts will dig deep into:
- Measurement - how the software carbon intensity calculation from GSF became an ISO standard, how to use it
- Measuring and optimising the software we build - should we use cost and performance as proxy metrics?
- Why only using carbon metrics is dangerous, and hides other damaging planetary impacts
- What you can do as a member of the technology industry - designing and measuring net positive interventions
