Workshop
Go Green And Modernize
Go Green And Modernize is Strategically Green's half day workshop with Anne Currie, one of the leading voices in modern software development and the author both of O'Reilly's Building Green Software and The Cloud Native Attitude. It is for companies that want to reduce their carbon impact and grow at the same time.
Anne visits your offices & leads the workshop on how to make your IT systems more sustainable by adopting architectural and operational best practices, why that works, and why it matters.
The workshop is for senior engineers, product owners, and executives to be educated, inspired, and energized together to deliver improved IT systems that are not only greener, but cheaper, more scaleable, more resilient, and more adaptable.
Answer questions like: why should I make my digital estate sustainable and where should I start? Is being sustainable just about doing the right thing or is it vital to ensure the business will grow? What are the right steps for my engineers to take next?
Put Energy Behind change & Improvement
We use battling carbon emissions as the motive to drive system modernization.
Our Go Green & Modernize Workshop combines talks and breakout sessions & covers how to use the latest technology tools & services to reduce dependence on costly and dirty fossil-fuelled power, while at the same time improving performance on other non-functional requirements including cost, reliability, & security. The breakout sessions are supported by former Azure engineering leader Jon Berger, author of the forthcoming book on leadership, What Happens When You Are Not In The Room?
Together, we explore the green impact of adopting new techniques like fast flow, DevOps, CI/CD, Infrastructure as Code, autoscaling, microservices, and more efficient ARM CPUs, as well as multi-tenancy options like burstable or spot instances types.
Focus on Growth
Green software is aligned with one of the fastest growing areas of our economy - renewable power. Software that is renewable-ready and a good grid citizen will be materially cheaper to run. We already see 10x cost reductions for some smart enterprises, opening up new product and market opportunities.
The Building Green Software Maturity Matrix
Discuss the Green Software Maturity Matrix with its original author.
In the workshop, we talk about why it is important to approach system-wide change step-by-step, build foundations, and take your time, because successful NetZero IT is a decade-long project:
Decide to act
Basic green operations: thriftathons, CI/CD
FinOps, Autoscaling, Demand Mgmt, IaC, Fast Flow, DORA, LightSwitchOps, Microservices, Spot and Burstable Instances
Embrace code efficient green platforms
Move to real time demand management
Multiple Dimensions
From product design to reporting and metrics, device management to machine utilization, change is required throughout an organization to align with the energy of the future - renewables
Join multinational corporations like Microsoft and JPMC in learning from Anne about driving modernization in a new way.
