In our race to build sustainable technology, we often focus on the wrong metrics or make assumptions about what drives our carbon footprint. This session explores the practical application of the Technology Carbon Standard (TCS) to application development and DevOps, helping developers and architects make informed decisions about sustainable coding practices.
The talk will start with an overview of the impact tech has on the planet.
Break down the 3 main areas of concern (Upstream, Operational and Downstream) and help identify which are significant in your case.
Then explore what practical choices you can make to reduce the impact of each of these areas.
