Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.
Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

2. Mission Statement
Make it easier, safer and more productive for companies to navigate, integrate, consume, extend
and maintain business application as a service.
The need: the consumer may need to access an array of cloud services from multiple providers to
deliver a complete solution. The actual solution assets may reside within the domain of multiple
cloud services providers.
We do many of the same things that a traditional IT services provider does in a service aggregator
role, but we also address additional complexities.
We will play a crucial role in cloud services consumption delivering value like services functionality
enrichment, mitigation of risk, management of compliance, verification, auditability of a
service, Integrating diverse cloud services and manage services consume.
3. Our Market
Gartner is projecting that the Cloud Services Brokerage (CSB) market will be worth over $100B by
2015, and will be the fastest growing segment within cloud computing overall.
We add value to the services being consumed. That value can take many forms or be delivered in
combinations of services.
• Any cloud service has the potential for needing a cloud brokerage to add value to it.
• Any cloud services consumer has the potential need for a broker to act on its behalf to gain added
value.
• Any combination of cloud services or consumption scenarios potentially needs brokerage to ensure
a level of satisfactory outcome.
Because of these three basic areas of potential need, we acts much like an add-on, or accessory
market for cloud computing.
As is well-known, many markets have shown that more money is to be made selling the accessories
for a given device or service than was made in the original sale.
Our markets benefit from this same equation of opportunity.
4. Offering
We offer combination of various value-added business and technical functions, including, but not
limited to:
Reducing the risk of consuming services
Integrating diverse cloud services
Specific expertise
Providing exclusivity and transparency centralized cloud services functionality (e.g., service
aggregation, archival and auditability)
Providing a single point for governance (avoid huge problem when a consumer is encountering
difficulties with multiple cloud services and is trying to figure out exactly where the problem is )
Offering various IT services to help consumers with cloud adoption
Keep track of solution assets that build solution and the relationships among these assets
Scouting in solution proliferation
Huge benefit for partner who join the ACOORA Platform to delivery their products/competencies
