Backstage: Carbon Aware SDK


Listen Later

In this episode, we go behind the scenes of the Carbon Aware SDK, a groundbreaking tool enabling developers to reduce software emissions by running workloads where and when energy is greenest. Featuring insights from Vaughan Knight, chair and project lead of the SDK, the episode dives into its origins, real-world applications, challenges, and milestones, including early contributions from UBS and Microsoft and its recent 1.7 release with NPM and Java libraries. Learn about how the SDK supports Software Carbon Intensity (SCI) metrics, practical examples of carbon-aware workload scheduling, and the roadmap for expanding developer resources and geolocation-based solutions.
