Sponsored Keynote: Accelerate Sustainable Computing with Community Collaboration

Open source collaboration can accelerate sustainable computing efforts to address the climate crisis. The use of community building and cross-collaboration can lead to policy development, research, and future investment in energy conservation and CO2 emissions reductions.

• Open source collaboration can accelerate sustainable computing efforts to address the climate crisis
• Community building can lead to policy development, research, and future investment in energy conservation and CO2 emissions reductions
• Cross-collaboration with other climate-focused communities is important
• Project Kepler works to export workload energy consumption across a wide range of computing platforms
• Project Capital captures energy usage by a workload running on Kubernetes clusters and enables innovation in workload scheduling, tuning, and scaling
• Project Capital is collaborative and has contributors from around the world
• The project is donated to CNCF and waiting for sandbox approval

The Project Capital is a collaborative effort with contributors from Red Hats, IBM, Intel, and other organizations. The project captures energy usage by a workload running on Kubernetes clusters and enables innovation in workload scheduling, tuning, and scaling. The project is community-led and has contributors from all over the world, including people developing software, doing scientific research, or working towards their advanced degrees. The project's logo was even created by a high schooler. With all these contributions, big or small, the project hopes to give ourselves, our industry, and our future generations sustainable environments.

Open source allows for a shift toward collaboration and co-creation as a problem-solving solution. Through leveraging the power of open source, this collaboration can accelerate creative, scientific and technological advancements in addressing the climate crisis.Learn how sustainable computing, the cloud native way, can impact energy efficient technology and how upstreaming communities can enable the acceleration of these efforts.
