Federica Ciuffo and Christian Melendez - Building sustainable architectures with Kubernetes

One of the most important cloud computing benefits is to focus on efficiency in every aspect of our infrastructure, and builders can accelerate the sustainability of their workloads through optimization and informed architecture patterns. In this session we’ll show you practical examples that combine different techniques how to build for sustainability on Amazon EKS by making use of Graviton, EC2 Spot, effective autoscaling with Karpenter, among other topics. Our aim is to provide a direction on reducing the energy and carbon impact of cloud architectures running on Amazon EKS, that at the same time will help you to optimize for costs.
