Lean for Green IT
The carbon footprint of IT services is between 1 and 2% of the world’s CO2 emissions. Datacenters try hard to be more sustainable, but software engineers do not invest this domain yet. There are also few papers, books about how to build software to have a reasonnable use of network and servers resources. GreenIT wikipedia page says that it is a continuous improvement process.
In this session, we’ll see how we have used Lean during conception phase to reduce the ecological footprint of our website by almost 25% thus improving user experience, decreasing the email notifications latency of 30 seconds and web page loading by 7%.
