How will software development and operations have to change to meet the sustainability and green needs of the planet? In this eye-opening book, sustainable software advocates Anne Currie, Sarah Hsu, and Sara Bergman provide a unique overview of this topic.
How will software development and operations have to change to meet the sustainability and green needs of the planet? And what does that imply for development organizations? In this eye-opening book, sustainable software advocates Anne Currie, Sarah Hsu, and Sara Bergman provide a unique overview of this topic-discussing everything from the likely evolution of national grids to the effect those changes will have on the day-to-day lives of developers.

Ideal for everyone from new developers to CTOs, Building Green Software tackles the challenges involved and shows you how to build, host, and operate code in a way that's not only better for the planet, but also cheaper and relatively low-risk for your business. Most hyperscale public cloud providers have already committed to net-zero IT operations by 2030. This book shows you how to get on board.

You'll explore:

How the energy transition is likely to change hosting on prem and in the cloud-and how your company can prepare
The fundamental architectural principles of sustainable software development and how to apply them
How to determine which parts of your system need to change
The concept of extending hardware longevity and the part that software plays

Anne Currie is a tech veteran who has been a part of the industry as a developer, senior manager, and startup founder for nearly thirty years working on everything from high performance C software in the '90s, to e-commerce in the '00s, to modern operations in the '10s. She is a campaigner for future-proof, sustainable systems and regularly writes and speaks on the subject. She is currently a community chair for the Linux Foundation's Green Software Foundation and is the founder of training and consultancy company Container Solutions. She is also a prolific science fiction author (of the Panopticon series). Sarah (Chun-Wei) Hsu is a strong advocate for green and sustainable software. She regularly speaks and writes on the subject, and currently serves as the chair of the Green Software Course project for the Green Software Foundation. The group, in collaboration with the Linux Foundation, recently launched a free online course called "Green Software for Practitioners" (LFC131) to help software practitioners develop and maintain greener applications. Sarah is currently employed as a Site Reliability Engineer, working on a distributed platform at Google Cloud. Sara Bergman is a senior software engineer working as a backend engineer with people experiences in the Microsoft ecosystem. She is an advocate for green software practices and frequently speaks about green software publicly in conferences, meetups, and podcasts. She is an individual contributor of the Green Software Foundation, where she has contributed to several projects, including the Software Carbon Intensity specification and the GSF newsletter.
