How Event-Driven Autoscaling in Kubernetes Can Combat Climate Change

Explore how event-driven autoscaling in Kubernetes can contribute to combating climate change in this 38-minute conference talk by Annie Talvasto from CAST AI and Adi Polak from Microsoft. Discover the connection between cloud service adoption and increased CO2 production, and learn about innovative solutions using Kubernetes technologies. Gain insights into event-driven autoscaling (KEDA), spot instances, and data aggregation from multiple sources, as well as relevant CNCF projects. Follow the creation and ideation process of an open-source project demonstrating how optimizing cloud and Kubernetes usage can reduce environmental impact. Delve into topics such as green software tips, the Cayla project, and its architecture through a comprehensive demo. Connect with the broader green software community and understand how technology can play a crucial role in addressing climate change challenges.
