Sustainable IT at tech events
6 write-ups · 6 events · 2024–2026
I collect sessions on green IT and sustainable computing here. From the Amsterdam sustainability meetups to AWS Summit and IBC, the recurring themes are measuring the footprint of infrastructure, how cost and energy use are linked, and what changes when AI workloads grow. These notes are for teams who want to act on it, not only discuss it.
