Sustainable IT and Data Innovation: Driving the Future of DevOps

The worlds of sustainable IT and data innovation are converging, and two upcoming events are set to showcase the latest developments in these critical areas of sustainable IT and data innovation. The SustainableIT Impact Awards & Symposium and the DevOps + Data Impact 2024 promise to bring together industry leaders, experts, and practitioners to explore how technology can drive positive change in both business and society.

Inaugural Impact Summit & Awards, SustainableIT.org

Sustainability Takes Center Stage

Sustainable IT has become a key focus for organizations across the globe, as the environmental impact of technology comes under increasing scrutiny. The SustainableIT Impact Awards & Symposium will be held in Austin, Texas. It aims to celebrate the institutions and individuals who are leading the way in this field. The event, organized by the nonprofit SustainableIT.org, will feature a range of awards, including the Environmental Award, which recognizes success in reducing energy consumption and emissions across technology infrastructure, and the Governance Award, which celebrates institutions that have woven sustainability into their decision-making processes.

Meanwhile, the DevOps + Data Impact 2024, presented by Perforce and Delphix, also in Austin, will dive deep into the world of data management and its role in driving innovation. As enterprises grapple with the challenges of managing and leveraging vast amounts of data, the conference promises to offer valuable insights and solutions. Attendees can expect to learn about the latest trends in data analytics, security, and compliance. Plus they will gain insights on strategies for optimizing data management to drive business success.

Perforce’s Acquisition of Delphix: Driving Sustainable Data Management

Perforce’s recent acquisition of Delphix, a leading provider of DataOps solutions, reflects the growing importance of data management in the DevOps landscape. This strategic move aims to help customers automate and accelerate their DevOps pipelines while promoting sustainable IT practices. As Perforce CEO Jim Cassens noted, “Data is at the heart of how enterprises operate today and essential for successful software development, but accessing and managing that data is extremely challenging. Many teams do not have rapid access to solid, high-quality test data.”

By integrating Delphix’s capabilities, Perforce seeks to address these challenges and enable more efficient and sustainable data management practices. As Cassens stated in a blog post announcing the acquisition, “Another unique ability of the Delphix platform is how it virtualizes data and ultimately reduces storage footprints, which is good news for sustainability and operational costs.”

Bridging Sustainable IT and Data Innovation

The convergence of these two events points to a broader trend in the DevOps world: the need to balance sustainable IT and data innovation. Organizations are increasingly recognizing that sustainability efforts can drive efficiency and innovation. Accordingly, robust data management can support environmental goals.

As the DevOps landscape continues to evolve, look for more initiatives that emphasize balance with AI-driven energy management in data centers, sustainable IT and software development practices, and circular economy approaches to IT hardware. Certainly, the upcoming events in Austin serve as a barometer for these trends, offering a glimpse into how industry leaders are navigating the complex intersection of technology, data, and sustainability. By attending these events and engaging with the insights they provide, DevOps teams can position themselves at the forefront of sustainable innovation, driving both business success and positive environmental impact.

6 Virtual DevOps Conferences You Can’t Afford to Miss in June 2020

Conferences and events make up to a trillion-dollar industry and have been playing a major role in connecting people from different parts of the world and exchange ideas. Because of the COVID-19 outbreak, the first major tech conference that got canceled due to health and safety concerns was the Mobile World Congress (MWC), the annual gathering of electronics makers.

Along the way, similarly, Facebook also canceled all physical conferences and events through June 2021, including the major F8 Developer Conference and the most awaited Oculus Connect 7 virtual reality event that was supposed to be held in San Jose, CA.

Even Microsoft, the giant, has announced all of its events are going digital-only until July 2021, including its flagship Microsoft Build and the prestigious Microsoft Ignite 2020.

At the beginning of April, more than 30,000 people were expected to attend the prestigious Google Cloud Next ’20 conference, all set to happen in San Francisco. But, as the coronavirus crisis intensified all over the world, keeping the attendees’ and employees’ safety in mind, Google decided to move the entire event online.

Today, we will see six virtual DevOps conferences you can’t afford to miss in June.
