Sustainable Architecture Presentation
I’ve finally uploaded the slides from the Sustainable Architecture Design presentation that I presented in May at the JAOO conference in Sydney and Brisbane. The synopsis of the presentation is as follows:
- Sustainability is not just something that organisations can aim for to be nice or for marketing reasons. Rather, as governments increasingly aim to put a price on carbon electricity and the price of hardware will increase as the cost of carbon is passed on.
- It is surprisingly possible to control the amount of resources used through an application’s architecture.
- A number of approaches are outlined in the presentation for reducing resources used by applications and therefore cost and environmental impact.
This presentation is based on the article on the Green Maturity Model for Virtualisation that was published in Issue 18 of The Architecture Journal, supported by further work that has been completed by Object and myself on the subject.
The content is, of course, much better presented than read. If you would like it presented live in your organisation please contact me through Object.
Feedback is welcome….
