Adopting Azure serverless architectures to help reduce CO2 emissions – Part 2 (Extending to the Edge)

Srinivasan Rakhunathan January 25, 2021 Jan 25, 2021 01/25/21

In the previous part of the serverless architecture post for the Contoso Claim processing application, we built two components. In this iteration, we will make the architecture more sustainable by using Edge computing. Edge computing is a paradigm that brings the compute, storage, and intelligence right down to the ...

How Azure.com uses Serverless Functions for Consumption-based utilization and reduced always-on electric footprint

Aaron Hogue December 14, 2020 Dec 14, 2020 12/14/20

In June 2020, we shared how Azure.com achieves a global scale and how Sustainable Software Engineering principles were at the center. In this post we discuss how serverless architecture helped us create more sustainable apps and saved us 10x in azure spend for our data pipeline middleware. By shifting our workloads from always-on to on-demand...

Adopting Azure serverless architectures to help reduce CO2 emissions – Part 1

Srinivasan Rakhunathan December 7, 2020 Dec 7, 2020 12/7/20

The article explains how serverless architectures can be used to enable sustainable software engineering principles. It takes a sample claim processing system and provides a thought process on how to use Azure serverless components like functions and Event grid to build out a reference architecture and showcase key design patterns.

Examining the Carbon Footprint of Devices

Srilatha (Bobbie) Manne November 23, 2020 Nov 23, 2020 11/23/20

Many of us are reliant on electronic devices but they come with a significant cost in terms of carbon and e-waste. With a little forethought and understanding of the carbon footprint of these devices, there are tangible and effective ways to reduce emissions with minimal adverse impact.

Carbon-Aware vs. Carbon-Efficient Applications

Asim Hussain November 9, 2020 Nov 9, 2020 11/9/20

If a user is aware a choice is being made to reduce carbon emissions, then the application becomes a carbon-aware application and not just a carbon-efficient application.
