The cloud holds a dirty secret: it generates greenhouse gas emissions on par with entire countries such as France or the United Kingdom (IEA, 2021). But there is hope! Infra & Cloud teams have the power to mitigate this issue. It all starts with a simple decision: choosing the right cloud region on platforms like GCP, Azure, or AWS. And guess what? This choice can reduce emissions by a factor of 10 or even 20! For instance, Ireland has a carbon intensity of 400 gCO2eq/kWh, while the French network can go as low as 20 g. I will demonstrate how we can measure and drastically reduce these emissions, making our cloud "carbon-aware." In this presentation, I will: - Address the issue of CO2 emissions in the cloud. - Present the regulatory and financial landscape that compels us to address this problem. - Introduce techniques to measure and estimate emissions using observability tools. - Discuss practical methods to reduce the carbon footprint of your cloud infrastructure. - Explain the concept of "carbon-awareness," where infrastructure dynamically self-adjusts based on emissions. - Live demo showcasing a carbon-aware infrastructure.
