Saving our planet, lifting people out of poverty, advancing economic growth... these are one and the same fight. We must connect the dots between climate change, water scarcity, energy shortages, global health, food security and women's empowerment. Solutions to one problem must be solutions for all. ---Ban Ki-moon, UN Secretary General.
Saving energy is so integral to life. Although organizations were first attracted to energy savings for the cost reduction it brought, they have now realized that creating sustainable energy solutions is no longer optional, but inevitable.
Technology is advancing, but then tracking the usage and wastage of energy for this is getting tougher by the day. Cutting energy waste becomes the hardest challenge for organizations across the world, mainly because of the very little data on the amount of energy used and wasted.
You can't make energy saving work without data.
Energy CIO Insights, an online/print technology magazine which provides knowledge network to the community of technology professionals facing challenges to leverage technology for their organization. Here senior technology executives from various businesses share their experience, advice and astuteness on energy sector that constitutes the very bedrock of nation's economy.
There needs to be a radical difference in the way we use energy if we are expecting a sustainable future. Operational Technology's increasing collaboration with Information Technology creates hope to bring about this transformation. Another development that will add to this change is the Internet of Things (IoT). Both these advancements have helped in inventing analytics-driven and customized energy saving solutions. With the smart technology, the demand and consumption of energy are automatically monitored and controlled.
When automation and energy are backed by software and analytics, it takes operational efficiency to another level. Enterprises around the world need to be backed up with strong energy management services by forming a robust ecosystem of partners. Governments must support enterprise-wide energy operations with sustainable energy solutions. Organizations working towards building up analytical models to make efficient energy saving solutions must be encouraged. Only then will the overall carbon footprint and energy wastage reduce and the energy losses that have occurred till now could be recovered.

Renewable energy not in the news 04092020 finalTony Green
Considering climate change, the Green New Deal, the upcoming presidential election, and now the outbreak of the Coronavirus there has little news about renewable energy. While not in the headlines Renewable Energy technologies had been quietly added, slowly but surely moving to a world which produces its energy without fossil fuels. But adoption is not guaranteed, and certain things need to happen before the renewable energy future which has been promised can become a reality.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.
Gopinath Rebala
Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery. Gopi also has a strong connection with our customers, leading design and architecture for strategic implementations. Gopi is a frequent speaker and well-known leader in continuous delivery and integrating security into software delivery.

2. What is it? Green computing, by definition, is “the environmentally responsible use of computers and related resources. Such practices include the implementation of energy-efficient CPUs, servers, and peripherals as well as reduced resource consumption and proper disposal of electronic waste.”
3. Energy Star Energy star, started back in 1992, is part of the U.S. Enviromental Protection Agency and the U.S. Department of Energy. Its goal is to help people save money by making more energy efficient products. By choosing appliances that have the Energy Star logo, you can cut up to a third off your energy bill.
4. EPEAT EPEAT, like Energy Star, is focused on promoting energy efficient products. Their whole website is devoted to computers and which ones are the most efficient and best for your budget. With over 1294 products registered on the site, it’s easy to find a product within your price range that has what your looking for, without the effects of higher energy costs.
5. Getting Started There are many groups out in the world that are focused on Green Computing. They constantly find ways to increase efficiency and maximize resources. From personal computing to major companies, these groups try to bring people into a cleaner, more eco-friendly computing enviroment.
6. Why is it important With the world the way it is, saving money and making it a more eco-friendly place is on everyone’s minds. In 2007 over $4.5 billion of electricity was purchased by companies just to keep up with the demands of energy needed by their data centers. By 2011, if this continues, data centers will use the same amount of energy put out by 25 power plants. This will increase that $4.5 billion to $7.4 billion. This will also double CO2 output to over 62 million metric tons.
7. What can you do to help? There are many things you can do to reduce the energy consumption of computers. Hibernating or shutting down your computer when not in use Using LCD displays instead of CRTs Unplug any unused electronics Reduce the use of paper Turn off hard drives and other peripherals when not in use.
8. What can you do to help? Use more advanced cooling process, reducing the need for costly heat sinks Increase virus protection to keep your computer going for a much longer time Filesharing for others Lower the amount of eWaste on the internet Use notebooks / laptops instead of desktop computers
