An important year in software

21 years later: Linux has won

Linux runs everywhere (even old versions, on crashy airline entertainment systems...)

#P0WN ALL TEH

GADGETZ !

It runs on Windows Azure! Jun 2012, w. Canonical

The Penguin is triumphant! (maybe not this one…)

Linux is ubiquitous

(but mostly invisible)

3. Making it Sustainable!

Ouch.

“Data centers are power-hungry, and Facebook's Oregon center in Crook County is no exception, using 28MW. While that's fairly standard, it has doubled the power use of the county...The entirety of Crook County uses just under 30MW...[Data Center Knowledge via SlashDot; Image: Tom Raftery]”

“no wait! It’s not that bad!”

“Facebook’s energy mix was 23 percent green, 27 percent coal, 17 percent natural gas, 13 percent nuclear, the company said... While the remainder was uncategorized, it can include all the above energy sources...”

platforms-to-help-reduce-emissions

Yup.

Rethink the layers

Infrastructure

Platform

Software

To make this sustainable...

make this “efficient”*, with dashboards...

and thismeterable, instrumented,

run on sustainable sources

gotta catch ’em all?

*efficient software

But -

We need to do this together!

what PaaS tools do we need?Let’s do this!
