Sustainability pillar
The sustainability pillar focuses on environmental sustainability.
Sustainability in the cloud is a continuous effort focused primarily on energy reduction and efficiency across all components of a workload by achieving the maximum benefit from the resources provisioned and minimizing the total resources required. This effort can include:
-
The initial selection of an efficient programming language.
-
The adoption of modern algorithms.
-
The use of efficient data storage techniques.
-
The deployment of correctly sized and efficient compute infrastructure.
-
The minimization of requirements for high-powered end-user hardware.
